Although we’re primarily a pork company, every day we set out to serve, not just produce high-quality pork.
At Clemens Food Group, our core values of Ethics, Integrity and Stewardship guide us in every aspect of our business. This includes our dedication to creating a more equal and inclusive environment for all of our team members.

COMMITMENT TO ANIMAL CARE
Making the Care of Our Animals a Priority, Every Step of the Way
For us, meeting industry standards isn’t enough. We aim to exceed them. All of our farmers are committed to animal care. That commitment extends across every stage of the business.
AT THE FARM
Hogs raised for Clemens Food Group are cared for by Country View Family Farms, a group of over 350 family-owned farms located across the U.S.
ON THE ROAD
We treat our animals with care throughout their lives — and that standard is no different when they are in transit.
AT THE PLANT
We have two processing plants with harvest facilities: one in Hatfield, Pennsylvania., and one in Coldwater, Michigan. Both state-of-the-art facilities illustrate our commitment to animal care throughout the harvesting process.
COMMITMENT TO ENVIRONMENT
Sustainability remains a key principle across our business at Clemens Food Group.
We’re committed to building a strong foundation for the future by being mindful of our environment, our animals and people as well as the following factors:
WATER
We’ve implemented conservation measures both at our farms and at our processing facilities to ensure that we’re only using the water we need to.
ENERGY AND EMISSIONS
For years, CFG has been an industry leader in using cleaner and alternative sources of energy, working to reduce both oil dependence and air contaminants.
TRANSPORTATION
Across our entire PV Transport fleet of 120 tractors, we use the latest technology to reduce fuel consumption, increase efficiency and lower our impact on the environment.
COMMITMENT TO FARMING
At CFG, we partner with Americans whose families have been farming for generations.
Overall, our collaborative approach is designed for our farmers, animals, consumers and for the environment. By combining our partners’ dedication and commitment to animal welfare with our state-of-the-art approach to pork product, we’re able to uphold several high standards, including:
State-of-the-art bio-security systems to guard against contamination
On-staff veterinarians and nutritionists
Established industry leading practices for rearing, from birth to finishing
COMMITMENT TO PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMERS
Products Made with People in Mind
Every product we produce is designed to exceed expectations, time after time. And while our approach to pork production is consistently focused on consumer satisfaction, that doesn’t just mean delivering great tasting products.
At CFG, nutrition and taste go hand in hand. As a protein-packed food that’s comparatively low in fat, pork is naturally an excellent part of a well-rounded diet. Each year, we work to make our products even better for consumers and our planet — all while keeping them delicious. In addition to creating nutritious, consumer-driven products, every aspect of what we do is founded on food safety and quality. Both are integral to our Core Values of Ethics, Integrity and Stewardship.
