SPRINGDALE, ARK. – Following a fire at the company’s Madison, Neb., pork processing facility on April 23, Tyson Foods Inc. said it expects to resume production the second week of May.

“Since the event and until the facility is back online, hogs have been diverted to other Tyson Foods pork facilities to mitigate disruption to our livestock producers and customers,” said Liz Croston, spokesperson for Tyson. “Active team members are receiving pay during the time the facility is not operating.”

Tyson and investigators are still looking into the cause of the incident and assessing the damage to the plant.

Following the fire, two employees were injured but were treated at a local hospital and released. The plant employs about 1,500 workers.

The company added that the areas of the plant that were affected by the fire are being repaired.
