About
JBS is the world's largest meat processing company, headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, with operations across beef, poultry, pork and plant-based proteins in more than 20 countries. Founded in 1953 as a small butcher shop in Goiás by José Batista Sobrinho, JBS has grown through aggressive acquisitions, including Swift, Pilgrim's Pride and Moy Park, into a global protein powerhouse with annual revenue exceeding USD 70 billion. The company operates a fully integrated supply chain from livestock sourcing and feedlots to slaughtering, processing, distribution and retail brands, with major operations in Brazil, the United States, Australia, Canada, Mexico and Europe. Its brands include Friboi, Seara, Swift, Pilgrim's and Primo, supplying fresh, chilled and processed meats to retailers, food service operators and export markets in over 190 countries. For B2B buyers, JBS is a cornerstone supplier of beef, poultry, pork and value-added protein products, with world-class food safety systems, scale and global logistics. Its move into plant-based and cultivated proteins through Planterra and BioTech Foods also positions it as a partner for the protein transition.
