Allied’s 20,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Vineland features two cook lines, three raw slicing lines and one breakaway steak line.
Cincinnati-based AdvancePierre Foods acquired Allied Specialty Foods, Inc., a Vineland, N.J.-based manufacturer of raw and cooked beef and chicken Philly steak products for foodservice, for $60 million.
“We are pleased to add Allied’s synergistic product platform and unique capabilities to our existing portfolio and network,” says John Simons, president and CEO of AdvancePierre. “The Philly steak category is primed for growth, and this acquisition strengthens our position, brings us additional products and production capacity and expands our geographic reach.”
