Our History

Founded in 1963, Jim Henry Enterprises has adapted to changes in the food processing industry while staying true to what matters most: delivering individualized customer service.

Known for his knowledge of the meat industry, Jim Henry’s goal was to help customers solve problems as if they were his own. Those who knew him appreciated not only his vast knowledge of the industry, but also his infectious laugh. Many became life-long friends of Jim and his wife, Helen, who often answered the phones and managed business operations. Together, they created the foundation of who we are as a company.

Today, Jim’s daughter, Cecelia, and grandson, Scott, proudly carry on this customer-first tradition. Our dedicated team shares their passion for excellence and genuine concern for every customer.

When you contact us, we’ll help you make the right product decisions at the lowest possible prices, and you’ll be able to speak with the same person the next time you call.

We hope to continue Jim Henry’s legacy for many years to come and look forward to working with you.
