The new space will help the company meet increasing demand for its meat snacks.

Oregon-based Old Trapper Smoked Products has a new manufacturing facility at its headquarters — just in time for the company’s 50th anniversary.

“As we enter our 50th anniversary year, this infrastructure investment arrives amid a period of skyrocketing demand nationwide for Old Trapper’s signature line of lean, flavorful beef jerky products,” said Robert Leary, director of marketing and communications for Old Trapper.”

The new 8,000-square-foot facility will enable the family-owned company to increase production of its meat snacks.

During the construction phase, the company operated its original manufacturing facility 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in order to meet demand.

The new facility is now up and running.
