Agriprocessors’ Gordon slaughterhouse closes
Jump to Comments
A Gordon slaughterhouse run by Agriprocessors has closed because of the financial problems the kosher meat company is having. The phone number for the Local Pride LLC plant that Agriprocessors ran was disconnected Wednesday. And Rabbi Menachem Genack, CEO of the Orthodox Union, said the Local Pride plant in Gordon closed several days ago when Agriprocessors lost its line of credit because the company couldn’t afford any new cattle. The Orthodox Union is the primary certifier of kosher slaughterhouses and monitored the Gordon plant. ChicagoTribune.com
