Grand Champion Meats Maintain Champion Status

We are proud to share the news; for the second consecutive year, Grand Champion Meats
been announced as the recipients of the Grand Champion award! The award was given out at
the 75th Annual Minnesota Meat Processors Convention put on by the Minnesota Association of
Meat Processors (MAMP) that was held in St. Cloud March 13-14th. The MAMP is a network of
Minnesota companies with an interest in the meat industry. The MAMP network is “designed to
aid in new technology development, further education, and maintain viability of the meat industry as a whole."

Grand Champion Meats has won the Reserve Grand Champion 2015 award for Uncooked
Fresh Pork Sausage Item and for Cooked Summer Sausage. The 2015 Grand Champion award
was for our Wieners and Cooked Non-Fermented Summer Sausage.

Another proud award recipient is our very own Teri Jo Parker! Teri has captured the gold for the
second year in a row by placing 1st for the Innovative Pork award. This award is judged upon its
appearance, edibility/flavor, and creativity/marketability. Teri did excellent in all three areas and
we are delighted and take great pride in our employees like Teri.

Additionally, our Crosslake location is now open for the season and is ready to serve you! Stop
