The COVID-19 pandemic has caused many meat processors to alter their business operations in order to maintain their sales. In the case of RJ’s Meats & Groceries, an award-winning meat processor in Hudson, Wis., it spurred owner Rick Reams to move forward on a long-planned idea – letting his shoppers order their products online.
“We have always encouraged phone ordering,” Reams says. “We acted fast and opened an online platform for people to place orders also. I have wanted to do this for years, and this just pushed me enough to get it figured out.”
