Tyson Foods Processing Facility

Tyson Foods’ new poultry processing facility is located in Danville, Virginia.

Planned for an 64-acre site, the greenfield chicken processing plant will be used primarily for the production of premium quality, fully-cooked Tyson branded chicken products, including Any’tizer® Snacks and Chicken Nuggets. Tyson Foods has committed to purchasing 60 million pounds of Virginia-grown chicken over the next three years. The building will also include a mezzanine level, ASRS cold storage structure, raw materials storage, production and packaging space, a two-story space for offices, and cold storage space that will range in temperatures from -10, 0, 34, 38, and 55 degrees throughout the building. A wastewater treatment plant and Fulton Building will also be included.

Construction started March 2022 and is set to complete in the spring of 2023. Designed by Lamar Johnson Collaborative in collaboration with Clayco’s internal design and engineering team, other project partners include Tucker Jones and Stock Engineering.
