Meat Processors
PAMP is a state organization for Meat Processors. We’re affiliated with the American Association of Meat Processors, the National Meat Trade Organization, and participate in the Meat Association Council.
Pennsylvania Association of
Meat Processors
Our association was formed in 1939 when a group of frozen food locker owners decided they needed each other as a support group. The original group was chartered under the name “The Pennsylvania Frozen Food Locker Association.”
With the advent of home freezers slowing the demand for rental lockers many members became involved in meat processing, curing, and product manufacturing. As a result, in 1973 the name of the association was changed again to what it’s known as today: the Pennsylvania Association of Meat Processors.
