LimeSprings Beef dba Upper Iowa Beef has been in production since Dec. 1, 2017, according to General Manager Ed Greiman, who is also an investor and hails from Garner. “We are buying cattle from local individuals,” he explained.
The business, which closed in May 2016 after three months production, now has 40 employees, for its five-day work week. More employees are added on a weekly basis.
Despite rumors, Greiman said the company never went bankrupt. “All the stockholders are still in place. We just added a few more stockholders.”
Greiman has a lot of knowledge in the cattle industry as he was president of the Iowa Cattlemen’s Association in 2013-2014.
