The market for vegetarian-fed, hormone-free beef is quite the cash cow for Meyer Natural Angus. After acquiring Coleman Natural Foods' beef division and Laura's Lean Beef, Meyer Natural Angus is now one of the top producers of natural beef (i.e., fed a grass- and grain-only diet, using no hormones or antibiotics) in the US. Its meat comes from the 43,000-acre Meyer Company Ranch in Montana and 200 contracted Red Angus cattle ranchers across the US. Processing about 10,000 head of cattle every month, Meyer's sells its fresh and frozen ground beef, bulk and pre-formed patties, fresh and frozen steaks and cuts, and dry-aged steaks throughout the country.

Founded in 2004, Monogram Food Solutions began operations when a group of Memphis investors purchased King Cotton and Circle B Brand foods from Sara Lee Corporation of Chicago. The purchase signified a homecoming for the brands. King Cotton was founded nearly 70 years ago in Memphis. King Cotton and Circle B are among the leading brands in retail sales of hot dogs, corn dogs, sandwich meats, and smoked sausages in the Memphis and Mid-South area.The former president of the Sara Lee Foods Dinner Group, Wes Jackson, continued Monogram's growth with the help of established relationships with key industry contacts. This was the precursor to licensing brands featuring NASCAR® and Jeff Foxworthy.

Mountaire Grain and Feed produces poultry feeds and operates grain elevators for corn, soybeans, wheat, and barley. Mountaire was founded in 1971, but the company's roots in the feed business date back to 1914.

This company's chickens have roads in three states to cross. (Why is the perennial eight-year-old's question, not answered here.)

It sells its chicken products throughout the US and overseas.
