Perdue Farms has a new distribution center

The new facility supports growing the company’s No-Antibiotics-Ever (NAE) and organic poultry products and will create new jobs.

Perdue invested $5 million in its Southeast Distribution Center and added thus 100 new jobs as part of a lease partnership with Lineage Logistics, one of the world’s largest temperature-controlled supply chain and logistics providers.

Lineage has also made a significant investment in facility and equipment improvements and adds 55 new warehouse jobs to support the project.

“Investments in the Southeast Distribution Center will enable us to meet the growing demand for no-antibiotics-ever and organic chicken and help us maintain the high level of customer service and reliability that customers expect from Perdue,” said Mark McKay, president of Perdue Premium Poultry and Meats.

“Lineage has been a warehouse services provider to Perdue for more than two decades, and their investments in updated technology will help us better serve our Southeast customers,” said McKay.
