Michael Foods, Inc. Company Profile
It's not meat and potatoes but poultry and potatoes at Michael Foods. The company is one of the leading US producers of shell eggs and value-added egg products (frozen, liquid, pre-cooked, dried). It has other operations, but eggs account for 70% of its sales. The spuds come in with its Northern Star subsidiary, which pre-shreds and mashes potatoes. The company's Crystal Farms subsidiary packages and distributes cheese, butter and other dairy products. Michael's customers include food processors, foodservice distributors, and retail grocery stores throughout North America, as well as in the Far East, South America, and Europe. Investment firm, Thomas H. Lee Partners, owns almost 90% of the company.
