About Us

McDonald's Meat's, Inc. has been in the McDonald's family for four generations. John Leo McDonald took over the Fred Mosford Meat Market in 1914. His son, Richard, took over the business in 1954. The first addition was added at that time to accommodate the growing business. In 1989, Richard's son, Dave, purchased the business. Once again, another addition was added to make room for increased production. Dave also began to experiment with making jerky.  2009 ushered in another change ownership with the fourth generation of Travis and Jennifer being added.
