OUR STORY
The Briggs family began finishing cattle in 1935.

It begins with high quality cattle - beef cattle that have the potential to command top dollar. We apply an intense hands-on management technique, utilizing advanced diagnostic technologies, custom rations, and an understanding of value-based marketing concepts.
