JBS beef plant to reopen on Monday

JBS Foods (JBS), on March 31, had shut down its Souderton, PA beef production facility after a number of management team members had come down with flu-like symptoms.
They had hoped to open this week, but that's proven only a tad optimistic. A spokesperson tells Bloomberg the plant will reopen on Monday.
The Souderton plant is no small player - with a capacity of 2.5K head per day, it's the largest beef facility east of Chicago. Before shutting down, it had added a "Saturday kill" to keep up with strong demand by grocery stores. LINK
