Look at Turkey Now™

Jennie-O Foods began in the 1940s as a vision of the Minnesota-native entrepreneur and part-time turkey grower Earl B. Olson. Earl purchased his first turkey processing plant in 1949 in Willmar, Minn. Earl was rightfully proud of his new plant and the future he was building for his children. Throughout the decades, the company, named after Earl’s daughter Jennifer, grew and thrived as turkey grew to be a major staple of the American diet.

In 1922, Wallace Jerome, who would later found The Turkey Store Company, got into the business of raising turkeys when he was just 13 years old. After decades of daily experience, he purchased a three-story barn in 1941, where he built his fledgling company. Jerome began production of traditionally prepared (known as “New York-dressed”) turkeys in 1948, and two years later purchased and equipped a building as a turkey processing plant. By 1952, the company was the first federally inspected, oven-ready turkey processing plant in Wisconsin, the first of many “firsts” for the company that would grow to be one of the major turkey producers in the nation.

A Store is Born

In Feb. 2001, the two companies joined forces to create a new, single company—Jennie-O Turkey Store, Inc. Now united under a single brand, Jennie-O Turkey Store offers an extensive turkey product assortment in the marketplace.

What started with the vision of two entrepreneurs has turned into one of the world’s leading processors and marketers of turkey products. Jennie-O Turkey Store processes over 1.2 billion pounds of turkey on an annual basis in a combination of toms for further processing and hens for whole bird enterprise.

Jennie-O Turkey Store combines the tradition and taste of Jennie-O with the fresh premium qualities of The Turkey Store to create convenient, year-round meal solutions. The variety of products offered by the Jennie-O Turkey Store brand caters to the needs of today's busy, health-conscious consumers who are discerning about the quality and taste of the food they serve to their families.
