Nahunta Pork Center first opened its doors in 1975 to serve the small rural community of Nahunta with sausage and fresh pork products. Nahunta Pork Center was actually a spin off of Nahunta Hog Market and Slaughter House which had been in business since the mid 1950’s as a hog buying station and custom slaughtering plant.

  In May of 1975 Mack Pierce, owner and operator, remodeled a bulk tobacco barn and began a small pork retail center. The first week the Pierce family processed a grand total of three hogs.

  After selling out of meat within a matter of a few hours of opening,
it was apparent that there was a demand for this kind of product even in the middle of the country.
