An announcement on the future of the former Norbest turkey-processing plant at Gibbon, Nebraska, expected on Tuesday, has been delayed until at least Friday, according to Gibbon city officials.
Buffalo County documents indicate that a New York-based company, Midwest Meat Packing LLC, has purchased the shuttered plant. Waverly, Nebraska turkey producer Bill Bevans told the Lincoln Journal-Star that he is waiting to see whether the sale will once again give him and others a marketing outlet in the state. Bevans says he’s heard the new owners plan to process turkeys, but there’s been no indication of potential volume or from where the turkeys will be sourced.
