Poultry processing and distribution cooperative across Canadian facilities
Exceldor processes ~1.4M chickens weekly across two Canadian plants, moving from legacy ERP (JD Edwards, SAP) toward transport management systems (TMS adoption underway). The hiring mix—manufacturing-heavy with emerging engineering and logistics leadership roles—reflects active plant integration and automation projects, while pain points cluster around food safety compliance, workforce management, and operational modernization.
Notable leadership hires: Logistics Director, Project Operations Director, Factory Director
