Tyson said each employee was told about the pending move this week and given the option to relocate to Springdale and Northwest Arkansas. Tyson will need to expand its corporate offices in Springdale to absorb the hundreds of personnel who chose to relocate. “Bringing our talented corporate team members and businesses together under one roof unlocks greater opportunities to share perspectives and ideas, while also enabling us to act quickly to solve problems and provide the innovative products solutions that our customers deserve and value.”
“Tyson’s diverse portfolio of products and brands provides us with an unmatched strategic advantage to serve our customers,” said Donnie King, Tyson Foods president and CEO. That will be roughly 1,000 corporate jobs from Tyson Fresh Meats business in Dakota Dunes and the Hillshire Brands offices and marketing positions in the Chicago area, according to Derek Burleson, corporate spokesman for Tyson Foods. The move will include corporate employees from Dakota Dunes, S.D., and two offices in the greater Chicago area. It’s estimated to add around 1,000 jobs to the campus that now has about 2,000 workers. Tyson Foods announced Wednesday it plans to consolidate corporate operations at the company’s headquarters in Springdale beginning next year.
