AdvancePierre Foods has used its new, culture-defining continuous-improvement program to drive bottom-line growth, fire on all cylinders and make targeted acquisitions as a uniquely positioned sandwich manufacturer and protein processor.
When John Simons began his stint as president and CEO of AdvancePierre Foods on Sept. 30, 2013, he saw the potential of the company he’d just been tapped to lead, as well as the challenges that lay ahead of the management team he began to assemble.
Production will be relocated to AdvancePierre’s facility in Caseyville, Ill., a sandwich manufacturing operation the company acquired last month from Landshire Inc.
