Kosher Meat Company Loses Legal Fight to Union

Who is Agriprocessors?

Agriprocessors is the largest kosher meat producer in the country. Based in Postville, Iowa, the company employs over 700 people and produces beef, chicken, turkey and lamb. The company also operates a plant in Gordon, Nebraska, that employs approximately 100 people and produces beef, bison, and lamb. 
Agriprocessors produces kosher and non-kosher meat products under the following brands:
  • Aaron’s Best
  • Aaron’s Choice
  • Rubashkin’s
  • European Glatt
  • Iowa Best Beef
  • Nevel
  • Shor Habor
  • Supreme Kosher
  • David’s

According to the company website, its "products can be found in many supermarkets nationally such as Albertson’s Kroger, Shop Rite, Wal-Mart, Trader Joe’s, Ralph’s, Pathmark, H.E. Butt, etc." Agriprocessors has been the center of controversy over a variety of issues, including food safety, health and safety, the environment and animal welfare.
