Sanderson Farms chooses LeanLogistics

As the third-largest US poultry producer, Sanderson Farms will be managing outbound transportation using industry benchmarks, advanced reporting, and automated freight settlement. With 11 production plants and hundreds of customers, Sanderson Farms will leverage LeanTMS to take its transportation network to the next level.
With company headquarters in Laurel MS, Sanderson Farms has a weekly processing capacity of more than nine million chickens. With the support of independently contracted growers, processing plants, hatcheries, feed mills, and hundreds at a prepared foods division, the company supplies poultry products to food retailers, distributors, restaurants, and foodservice operators across the United States and in more than 40 nations.
“Sanderson Farms chose LeanLogistics’ technology solution based on the depth of their platform and the focus on true collaborative partnerships,” said Earine Seibert, global logistics lead for Sanderson Farms. “We looked for a partner that had supply chain expertise with protein companies similar to us and innovative technology that can scale with us. LeanLogistics was that partner.”
