A new Pork Processing Plant is in the works in Kansas

Billy Madison , the owner S.H. Pork Processing, is in the final phases of bringing a meat processing plant to Bourbon County.

“I have been working to bring about the meat processing plant, a pork processing plant,” Fort Scott Mayor Matthew Wells said in an interview.

“This plant will provide farmers with an outlet for their pork processing,” Madison said. “And provide 15-30 new jobs.”

The pork processing plant will be located on 47 acres south of the Kansas Department of Transportation facility on Hwy. 69 south of the LaRoche Ball Park.

The business will manufacture pork for the Asian and Hispanic markets, Madison said.
