Greater Omaha Packing turns great cattle into even greater beef. The company is a leading independent beef slaughterhouse in the US that processes some 15,000 head of cattle each week at its single plant in Omaha, Nebraska. Greater Omaha Packaging's packaged beef products are shipped to a variety of customers throughout the country and in some 50 international markets. The packaging company is one of a small number of US packing plants certified to ship non-hormone treated beef to Europe. The family-owned company -- which markets under the brands Omaha Natural Angus, Certified Angus Beef, Certified Hereford Beef, Halal Beef, and 1881 Omaha Hereford -- was started by Herman Cohen Davis in 1920.
