Meat Packing Industry a
Multi-Million Dollar Enterprise
-
Prepared for The Centre Democrat by Richard P. Brown, Chairman, State
Planning Board, Pennsylvania Department of Commerce
Of Pennsylvania's ten million citi-
gens, some may be able to lve with.
out meat, but most can't—which is
the principal reason why meat
packing is in our State a multi-mil-
lian dollar enterprise
In fact, according to a survey
made by the State Planning Board
for the Pennsylvania Department of
Commerce, the annual production
value of our State's meat packing
industry exceeds the hundred mil-
lion dollar mark, being $129221 300
in the most recent for which
figures are available, The Planning
Board survey further shows that the
industry has invested capital of ap-
proximately twenty million dollars,
that it employs almost ten thousand
persons and that it dispenses an-
nually fourteen million dollars in
wages and salaries
Almost two-fifths of the
value of production is accounted for
by the packing of fresh beef and
fresh pork, the two products being
about even in value although beef
does run slightly higher in
Pickled and ry-cured (smoked) pork
comes third. followed in order by
lard, fresh veal cooked hams, fresh
lamb and mutton, and similar meal

Historical records show that
Pennsylvania's meat packing indus-
try must have been started prior to
1729 (in Philadelphia) for in that
ear the Provincia; Assembly passed
a very long and very minute act
“more effectually to prevent unfair
practices in the packing of beef and
pork for exportation.” The act di-
rected the size and material of casks
required that the casks must

who made them, as well as
