The Ohio State University

The Ohio State University offers meat processing services in Columbus, Ohio, serving farms and producers throughout central Ohio and within reach of Dayton. Its processing program handles cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and poultry including chickens, turkeys, and ducks, covering both slaughter and full processing.

As part of the university's animal sciences and meat science programs, the facility operates under academic oversight that blends hands-on production work with food safety training. This dual purpose means processing runs are conducted with attention to detail suited for research, teaching, and commercial-scale needs alike.

Farmers, small-scale producers, and breeders raising mixed livestock or poultry flocks may find this a practical option for processing needs that span multiple species in one location. The range of animals handled makes it a useful resource for diversified operations looking to consolidate processing logistics rather than working with separate facilities for each type of livestock or bird.
