About Us
Family is at the heart of
our company
Mountaire® (collectively Mountaire Corporation and its two operating affiliates, Mountaire Farms Inc. and Mountaire Farms of Delaware, Inc.) are agricultural food production and processing companies providing work for over 10,000 people at facilities in Arkansas, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina. Now the fourth largest chicken company in the United States, we are still family owned and remain dedicated to giving back to the communities where we do business.
Mountaire was founded in 1914 by Guy Cameron. His son, Ted, joined him in the business, and the family legacy continued when his grandson, Ronnie, joined the company in 1968. Ronnie remains as Chairman of the Board.

We’re committed
to excellence
Our commitment to operational excellence means we deliver high quality products to our customers at an affordable price. Our reputation for being able to consistently deliver on that promise is what continues to set us apart.
To be good stewards of all of the assets that God has entrusted to us
This statement, from our Mountaire Creed, is something we live by every day. We believe in the values of One Health – that the health of humans, animals and the environment are inseparable. We adhere to strict animal welfare guidelines throughout our vertically integrated process because we are committed to the health and welfare of our birds, and ultimately, to the consumers who purchase our products.
