New Richland meat processor loses thousands of pounds of product in flash flood

Neighbor’s Meats in New Richland discarded fresh and finished product after the September 19, 2026 flood. The September 30 report described refrigeration pumps needing replacement, while most farmers’ meat remained in powered higher-side coolers. At the September 24 interview, slaughter and cutting had resumed but flooded-area repairs and retail reopening remained separate tasks.

We serve New Richland and nearby Waseca, Albert Lea, Owatonna and Mankato in southern Minnesota. Coverage follows the southern processing and retail corridors through Austin, Rochester, Winona, Faribault, Northfield, Red Wing, New Ulm, Worthington and Marshall. We also serve Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington, Eagan, Shakopee, Brooklyn Park, Stillwater and Hastings; Willmar, Alexandria, St. Cloud, Little Falls and Brainerd inland; and Fergus Falls, Moorhead, Detroit Lakes, Crookston, Thief River Falls and Bemidji to the northwest. Northern and northeastern inquiries include International Falls, Grand Rapids, Hibbing, Virginia, Ely, Duluth, Cloquet, Two Harbors and Grand Marais.

Noah Fish's September 30, 2026 report distinguished damaged equipment from higher-side coolers that kept operating. Partial recovery was not a complete cooler shutdown. A comparable plant could assess an emergency mobile refrigeration facility for a specified repair need without emptying unaffected rooms unnecessarily. Call +1 (866) 216-4667 on our 24/7 phone line to discuss the affected equipment and authorized transfer plan.
