Meyer Natural Angus has entered into an agreement to acquire the natural and organic beef business of Coleman Natural Foods LLC. The sale allows Coleman to concentrate on its natural poultry, pork and prepared foods businesses while it strengthens Meyer in the growing natural beef market.

“This agreement is a sign of our strong commitment to the natural beef industry,” says Meyer President Al Byers. “With the addition of the Coleman Natural Beef business, we will expand out market presence, associate with a brand that has been an innovator in natural beef and be in a position to provide superior service to the many customers of the Coleman Natural and Meyer Natural Angus brands.”
