Perdue Farms closes Georgia, US distribution center due to hurricane

US chicken company Perdue Farms closed a distribution center in Rincon, Georgia, the United States, on September 30 due to Hurricane Ian, a spokesperson said.

It also canceled a day shift at its Dillon, South Carolina processing plant.

The company delayed some chicken production until this week and rearranged scheduling to keep workers safe in the storm, spokesperson Diana Souder said.

Perdue will still produce the same volume, she added.
