The good news of the day is the Agriprocessor has been sold ! More importantly, it will remain a kosher meat plant and hopefully can bring down the cost of kosher meat and poultry. The buyer: SHF industreies which as previously discussed is owned by Canadian plastics manufacturer Hershey Friedman and his son-in-law, Daniel Hirsch. No news as to how quickly they will get operations up and running. Agriprocessor aka Rubashkin had gone bankrupt after undergoing several scandals and labor law indictments.

Kosher Meat: Prices to Come Down?
Kosher Meat prices have been steadily on the rise with the recent bankruptcy and controversy surrounding the nation's largest Kosher slaughterhouse, Agriprocessor. It seems Agriprocessor has found a buyer:SHF Industries, a newly formed company owned by Hershey Friedman, a Montreal businessman. Lets hope they can get this company up and running again and bring down the prices on kosher meat everywhere.
