About Smithfield Foods

Smithfield helps families put food on the table by making meat products. The company turns farm animals into bacon, sausage, and hams for stores. It serves shoppers in the United States and several other countries.

What Is on the Menu?

  • Packaged Meats: Processes meat into items like bacon, hot dogs, and deli meats; accounted for 56% of sales in 2025.
  • Fresh Pork: Sells various cuts of raw meat like ribs and loins to stores and other food companies.
  • Hog Production: Raises animals on company-owned and partner farms to supply its own processing plants.
  • Other Operations: Raises hogs in Mexico and makes heparin, a medicine used to prevent blood clots.

New Moves and Big Plans

  • Initiated a plan in February 2026 to build a $1.3 billion processing plant in Sioux Falls.
  • Agreed in January 2026 to buy Nathan's Famous to own the popular hot dog brand.
  • Completed an initial public offering in January 2025 to list shares on the Nasdaq market.
  • Reduced its farm ownership by selling sow herds to Murphy Family Farms and VisionAg in 2024 and 2025.

What Makes Smithfield Different?

The company manages the entire food chain by raising its own animals and making its own animal feed. This vertical integration helps ensure a steady supply of meat for its brand-name products.

The Financial Scorecard

  • Revenue reached $4.2 billion in Q4 2025, up 7% from Q4 2024.
  • Net income rose to $327 million in Q4 2025, a 60.3% increase year-over-year.

  • Free cash flow grew to $842 million in Q4 2025, up 40.1% from Q4 2024.

Bottom Line

Smithfield has shifted from a farm-focused business to a branded food producer with higher profit margins. The company continues to modernize its facilities while streamlining how it raises livestock.
