Old-Fashion High Tech
Valley Maid's superb quality comes from some of the most advanced processing and packaging technology available in the business - and upgrades are continuous.But one major step of Valley Maid's processing will never change. We'll always slowly smoke our hams, bacon and sausage batch- by- batch over the savory glow of pure hickory chips - for incomparable full flavor. And even though sales of Valley Maid hickory-smoked hams, bacon and sausage keep growing, we refuse to switch to conveyor- belt smoking for speed like our bigger competitors. One taste and you'll know why.
Food Safety First
Every working day, we closely inspect, completely clean and again inspect every component of our production facilities. That's why Valley Maid is proven to have one of the industry's most stringent, aggressive and successful sets of procedures for sanitation and safety compliance. It starts with our close
adherence to HACCP guidelines and thorough inspections of every day's
production. All product is held until after the inspection analysis - when
safety is assured.
But don't take our word for it. Valley Maid's co-pack customers are some of the biggest, best-knownbrand names in retail and foodservice pork. They frequently audit our food safety procedures. Valley Maid consistently receives high scores - often outscoring the facilities of the co-pack customers themselves.
The Brand That's Winning The World
Valley Maid Foods is actually a smaller company today than it was in 1999.
Yet now the company is more focused, dynamic and successful than ever.
In the late 2000s, Valley Maid's sales territory was limited to the west coast. Today, Valley Maid covers most of the western world, selling over 60 million pounds of product annually.
Approximately 40% of our plants' production is co-packed for
major pork companies and their brands. Of the remaining 60% of product
packed under VAlley Maid brands, about half is for foodservice and the
other half is for retail sales. As Valley Maid Foods has evolved over the decades, it has remained a multi-generation, family-owned business.
And along the way, we've never lost sight of the uncompromised
insistence on top quality on which Betty Furness founded our business. And no matter how Valley Maid continues to grow - we never will.
