Jun 10, 2023 BJ's, Costco, Target Discover the impressive $1 billion poultry farm and slaughterhouse built by Costco in Nebraska. Unleashing a massive operation to meet demand for their famous $4.99 rotisserie chicken, witness the innovation behind their exclusive processing plant. $4.99 ROTISSERIE CHICKEN SUPPLY Costco has invested a substantial amount of $1 billion to construct a large poultry farm and slaughterhouse in Nebraska. The purpose of this investment is to meet the high demand for their renowned $4.99 rotisserie chicken and ensure a consistent supply for their customers. The newly established processing plant, located on a 400-acre site, encompasses a massive 400,000-square-foot facility with 500 chicken houses, each accommodating 42,000 chickens. This move sets Costco apart from its competitors like Target, BJ’s, and Kroger, as it becomes the only retailer with its own processing plant. Costco views this as a strategic advantage, enabling them to maintain the availability of their popular rotisserie chicken in their stores at a consistent price for an extended period. The $4.99 rotisserie chicken serves as a draw for customers and has helped Costco withstand challenges such as inflation and the threat of avian flu by leveraging its independent supply chain. LINCOLN PREMIUM PROCESSING Costco founded Lincoln Premium Processing, led by Walt Shafer, the Chief Operating Officer, to oversee the chicken production. The company has prioritized various processes, including trussing and marinating, to ensure a high-quality product that resonates with consumers. Shafer highlights the significance of the rotisserie chicken, stating that it has become the centerpiece of Costco’s stores and a fundamental aspect of their business. The Fremont, Nebraska plant, which opened in 2019, has granted Forbes access to its expansive facility. With a capacity to process two million chickens per week, the plant primarily sources its chickens from its network of chicken farmers and their dedicated chicken houses. This Nebraska facility has enabled Costco to secure approximately 100 million out of the estimated 400 million chickens sold annually. Roughly half of the processed chickens end up on rotisserie spits, while the remaining portions are cut, packed in plastic, and distributed to stores across the Midwest and West Coast. Costco learned valuable lessons from Tyson, the largest poultry producer in the country, which faced difficulties in establishing a new chicken plant in Kansas due to local opposition. To gain acceptance and support from Nebraskans, Shafer spent two years engaging with farmers in the traditionally cattle ranching area, persuading them to incorporate chicken farming into their operations.
