Place Product in Containers

Packers place the meat product into the appropriate containers in an efficient and timely manner. They appropriately package the food to minimize breakage and movement during shipping.

Inspect Containers

Containers and other types of packaging may be damaged or unclean. It is the packer’s responsibility to ensure the integrity and cleanliness of the containers before they are shipped out to retailers.

Seal and Label Containers

Once the meat product has been packaged, food packers seal and label containers with the appropriate materials. They seal the containers in a way that prevents unpackaging during shipping. Packers label the containers with product information and weight.

Stack and Arrange Containers

After everything has been packed, sealed, and labeled, packers stack and arrange the containers in an efficient and safe manner.
