Hormel Foods faced production disruptions in Q3 due to issues at its Planters facility in Suffolk, Virginia, which have since been addressed through corrective actions and partnerships with co-packers to enhance production rates. The company reported improvements in equipment and processes, and expects to resolve remaining impacts by the end of the fiscal year. Additionally, Hormel is managing ongoing challenges related to Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in its turkey supply chain, while planning a $200 million investment to modernize operations and streamline its supply chain.
