North Platte Project Update

Sustainable Beef LLC, the rancher-driven beef processing facility proposed for North Platte, Neb., is one step closer to reality. An official ground-breaking ceremony with local dignitaries and Neb. Governor Pete Ricketts was held Tuesday, Oct. 4.

The 500,000 square-foot plant will have the capacity to process about 1,500 cattle per day and is expected to employ 875 workers and have a $1 billion dollar impact on North Platte’s economy. The plant is expected to be operational in late 2024.
