Poultry, pet food, and animal nutrition manufacturer with 8,000+ employees across North America
Simmons Foods operates three manufacturing divisions—prepared poultry, store-brand pet food, and animal nutrition—from its Siloam Springs headquarters, serving all 50 US states and 40+ countries. The tech stack is anchored in Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP and SCM with industrial controls (Allen-Bradley, RSLogix, FactoryTalk), revealing a capital-intensive operation focused on production efficiency. Current hiring is heavily skewed toward manufacturing and operations roles (181 of 227 active positions), with 151 postings in the last 30 days—accelerating velocity focused on junior-level fills, suggesting either facility ramp-up or high throughput in production staffing.
Simmons Foods manufactures and distributes poultry products, store-brand wet pet food, and animal nutrition formulations. The company operates as a privately held group with approximately 8,000 team members and serves retail, foodservice, and pet nutrition channels across North America and export markets. Its three operating units—Simmons Prepared Foods (ranked top 15 US poultry producer), Simmons Pet Food (largest store-brand wet pet food supplier in North America), and Simmons Animal Nutrition (proprietary formulation products)—leverage shared supply-chain and manufacturing infrastructure. The organization operates its own capital projects, maintenance, and continuous-improvement programs to manage production reliability and regulatory compliance.
