Video Transcript

(upbeat music) - My name is Mike DeVries - And I'm Barb DeVries and we are Caledonia Packing. - [Mike] We joined MSU Product Center in 2015. - [Barb] We purchased Caledonia Packing in 2013 and started with two full-time employees and one part-time employee. And since then we've grown to a company with over 20 employees. In 2016, we won the Barrier Buster Award. Even with the challenges of 2020, we have seen steady growth of new customers and our schedule's completely full for the year 2021. - [Mike] The Making It In Michigan Conference has allowed us to showcase our abilities as both a custom and a USDA process. Having USDA services has allowed more livestock growers in Michigan to bring their product to the marketplace by using our federally inspect facility. - [Barb] We hope to see you at this year's Making It In Michigan event.
