Meat processor Tyson Foods will move about 500 corporate employees based in its Chicago office and Downers Grove, Illinois, innovation center to its Springdale, Arkansas, world headquarters, the company said in a news release Wednesday.
Tyson is also moving employees to Arkansas from Dakota Dunes, South Dakota. A “phased relocation” of employees from those three locations will begin early next year, the company said.
About 1,000 employees in total will be affected by the consolidation, Tyson spokesperson Derek Burleson said in an email.
