We were in Washington DC this week for the National Turkey Federation’s Technical and Regulatory Committee Meeting. We discussed policy options for reducing Salmonella in turkey products and received updates on committee food safety projects. For Morris, food safety is our most important goal and we thank the NTF for making a commitment to ensure the turkey industry remains safe. We look forward to next year’s event!

Today was Morris’ Q1 Quarterly Meeting and we discussed the important strides we’ve made year over year as well as brought our employees over to tour our new office space as we get closer to the grand opening.

This upgrade isn’t just about a change of address, it’s about creating a better experience for everyone who walks through our doors. The new space is modern, spacious, and designed with both comfort and efficiency in mind. From improved layouts that make collaboration easier to updated facilities that support productivity, every detail was chosen with purpose. With this new added space, we will be able to better serve our customers which is Morris’ number one priority.

We can’t wait to show you the finished product!
