Future Beef Operations (FB0) has started production in Arkansas City, Kansas, bringing with it the likely future face of meat and leather processing in the United States.

Developed at a cost of more than $100 million, FBO is a state-of-art beef plant which includes slaughter, meat packing, the production of cooked meats, pet treats and tanning. Of greater significance, the facility also provides both the beginning and the end of a horizontally-integrated process, where every aspect of the beef and leather production chain is carefully managed to achieve maximum quality.
