‘Can-do’ attitude at Butterball's Carthage facility
Butterball’s desire to become more self-sufficient brought new strategic purpose to its Carthage, Mo., facility — and operational changes embraced and propelled to success by its employees.
Throughout the last decade, change has been nearly a way of life for Garner, N.C.-based Butterball LLC, whether in the form of market trends, corporate ownership/leadership or modifications to processes.
Today, however, with CEO Rod Brenneman nearing his two-year anniversary at the helm of the company, stability and a sharp strategic focus have taken hold. And in this “new world order” at Butterball, the “can-do” attitude adopted by the company’s Carthage, Mo., facility has earned it some key investments over the past two years.
