I live fairly close to this plant. It appears to have been a meat packing plant and a slaughter house. I am just too curious and I need to know why they shut it down. It has been shut down for quite sometime now.. You can tell by the condition of the building.

I have been searching around on line and other than finding out stats about the company, and that they were a slaughterhouse/meat packing company.. I cannot find anything. There was one website that had some information on it that I did not have access too because I am not on a campus or in a library. The site was jstor.org I believe.

Someone pleasehelp out this curious mind if you can, Thanks!

  1. The building was old and needed upgrading. It would have been very expensive. They closed it and moved to another site in Virginia.
