President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board, Wayne-Sanderson FarmsAs a leading poultry producer headquartered in the nation’s top poultry-producing state, Wayne-Sanderson Farms knows the value of partnership. Through decades of collaboration with UGA’s College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences’ Department of Poultry Science, Wayne-Sanderson Farms has explored areas of research and fortified a talent pipeline. In 2021, Wayne-Sanderson Farms further advanced this partnership with a $1.1 million gift to the Poultry Science Complex campaign.
The young people entering our industry are what will continue to make it great, so it’s important that we attract the best students and help them understand the opportunities that exist in the poultry industry. Supporting the University of Georgia and helping them have state-of-the-art facilities helps us do just that.
