Omaha's century of meatpacking and food processing set a demanding production bar. PLAN IT supplies VFFS baggers, multihead fillers, and case-packing automation built to match that volume for processors across the metro.

Omaha grew up as a rail and wholesale-distribution crossroads, and that corridor position turned the city into one of the country's meatpacking capitals. The Union Stockyards, founded in South Omaha in 1883, drew four of the five largest US meatpacking companies within two decades, and by the 1950s roughly half of Omaha's workforce processed meat and food for shipment nationwide. That history built the kind of high-volume, food-safety-driven production culture that still runs on packaging automation today, spanning protein processors, snack and prepared-food producers, and the agricultural-equipment manufacturer headquartered in the metro. If you run a food or meat-processing line anywhere in that mix, you need equipment that keeps pace with volume without slowing for hand-packing. We supply and integrate that equipment for producers serving Omaha and the surrounding Nebraska corridor.
For meat, poultry, and prepared-food lines, that usually starts with a Mars Series VFFS machine forming, filling, and sealing bags at the speed modern plants require, paired with EliteWeigh multihead weighers or EliteFill auger fillers for portioned or powdered product. Downstream, automatic case packers and PackMaster cobot palletizers move finished bags into cases and onto pallets without adding headcount during peak runs, and checkweighers or metal detection catch shortfalls and contamination before product ships. A food producer that partnered with PLAN IT made the same shift on its line, trading manual fill-and-pack stations for automation sized to its real throughput. Fill weights still have to hold. If your operation runs anywhere near Omaha's meatpacking or food-processing volume, we build lines for it: fewer stoppages, and consistency that survives shift changes.
