What is OPPC?

A Dedicated History to Ohio's Pork Producers...

The Ohio Pork Producers Council was established in 1968 when Ohio pork producers determined it was a necessity to promote their own product. When the organization began, about 800 pork producers dedicated themselves to this task. The Council now has approximately 2,500 members. As the organization has grown, so have the programs to promote pork, along with increased services for OPPC members.

Today's members continue to look toward tomorrow. Each year shows an increased awareness of the challenges and solutions facing the industry. This awareness will continue to make the Ohio pork industry strong and viable for the next generation of Ohio pork producers.

Be a part of this impressive group of people who have joined together to promote their product to the state, nation and world.

OUR MISSION:

To serve and benefit all Ohio pork producers.
