Land O’Frost Inc., a third-generation, family-owned producer of presliced deli meats and specialty protein products, is releasing its 2025 Corporate Social Responsibility Report. The report reflects the company’s progress and key accomplishments in food safety, sustainability and community impact.

"For over 80 years, our family-owned business has been guided by a commitment to quality, innovation, and care for those we serve," said David Van Eekeren, president and CEO of Land O'Frost. "This report highlights how Land O’Frost, together with our extended family of consumers, customers and suppliers, is delivering on that promise. From optimizing our fleet and surpassing our emissions reduction goals to expanding access to healthy food for families nationwide, we honor our purpose: to make every day more fulfilling than the last."

Key highlights from the report:

• Food safety excellence: Achieved “Excellent” ratings from Safe Quality Food across all three manufacturing facilities — Lansing, Ill.; Madisonville, Ky.; and Searcy, Ark. — as well as expanded employee training programs and participated in workshops and conferences with organizations like the Meat Institute and International Association for Food Protection to ensure the highest standards in protecting consumers and communities.
• Sustainability leadership: Surpassed goal ahead of schedule to reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 5%, establishing 2025 as a new baseline for year-over-year reporting and setting a 2030 goal to reduce emissions an additional 3%. Key initiatives included energy-efficiency upgrades, fleet innovations such as electric Auxiliary Power Units and enhanced reporting on Scope 3 emissions.
• Community impact: Donated over $2 million to Breakthrough T1D to date, grew the Youth Sports program to support 140 leagues, 6,512 teams and 65,000 players in 19 cities, and added 20 Community Outreach Program sponsorships to increase access to healthy food.
