History
Established in 1963.
In 1955 Sandy Emerson built Emerson Produce Company with the idea that he'd process live chickens there. 7 years after building the facility, he couldn't get enough birds grown locally to keep operating as a slaughterhouse. He sold the business to two employees, Lloyd Button and Donald Dudley. Lloyd and Don changed the name to Dudley Poultry Company, Inc. because Don was the salesman and customers knew his name best. They brought dressed chickens in from the south, cut them into parts and distributed them to area grocery stores and meat markets. Don died in 1983 leaving Lloyd as sole owner. Lloyd sold the business to Peter and Linda Jackson in 1985. The Jackson's added beef and pork to the mix and grew the business. They sold it to their daughter, Teresa Jackson, in 2001. Dudley Poultry continues as a healthy, solid business delivering meat and other food products to customers in Upstate New York.
