Consider how you would seek out a standard piece of equipment or machinery. You have a long list of options: visit your local retail store. Look online. Dig into your network of contacts.

Comparatively, the process of buying or selling used meat processing equipment is more difficult. Try searching online for a used mobile slaughterhouse, mobile meat processing trailer, or small meat processing plant. Regardless of your search terms, you will likely yield few results.

Only a small, niche group of farmers or ranchers are looking to buy or sell pre-owned meat processing equipment. Since the equipment is more specialized, it isn’t accessible, advertised, and available like standardized equipment. Either you personally invest time, energy, and money in your search, or link up with a partner that can take on this task for you.

At Friesla, we’re connected to a broad network of meat processors and producers. As your broker, we draw on this network to find the used meat processing equipment you need, or a buyer for the equipment you’re looking to offload. Commission our team to begin your search.
