Foster Farms
Foster Farms
Foster Farms is a major American poultry and prepared-food company headquartered in Livingston, California. The company was founded in 1939 by Max and Verda Foster, who borrowed $1,000 against a life-insurance policy and started a small poultry farm in California’s Central Valley. The business initially focused on raising turkeys and chickens, then gradually developed its own hatchery, processing capabilities, distribution operations, and branded food business. Foster Farms opened its first processing facility in Livingston in 1959, helping establish the Central Valley community as the long-term center of its operations.
Today, Foster Farms produces a broad portfolio of fresh, frozen, refrigerated, and ready-to-eat poultry products. Its current consumer assortment includes fresh chicken, free-range chicken, organic products, frozen chicken nuggets and strips, Take Out-style wings and tenders, refrigerated cooked chicken, chicken franks, deli meats, and corn dogs. Foster Farms products are sold through supermarkets, warehouse clubs, foodservice distributors, schools, institutional customers, and other retail channels. Current industry information identifies the company as having more than 12,000 team members and operations in multiple states, including California, Oregon, Washington, Alabama, Arkansas, and Colorado.
An important ownership change occurred in June 2022, when Atlas Holdings acquired Foster Farms from entities associated with the Foster family. This ended more than eight decades of direct Foster family ownership, although the company retained the Foster Farms name, California headquarters, brands, employees, and operating businesses. Atlas described Foster Farms at the time of acquisition as a roughly $3 billion annual-revenue poultry company, and Foster Farms continues to operate as a privately held Atlas portfolio business rather than a publicly traded corporation.

For a consumer product concern, the best route is Foster Farms Consumer Affairs at 1-800-338-8051 during published weekday hours. Have the product name, UPC or barcode, package size, plant code if shown, purchase date, store name, use-by date, and photographs available before calling. These details are particularly important for quality, foreign-material, freshness, packaging, or food-safety complaints because they allow Foster Farms to identify the relevant production run more efficiently.
For a general corporate or business matter, the current headquarters line is 209-394-7901 at 1000 Davis Street in Livingston. Commercial customers should use their existing Foster Farms sales or account contact wherever possible because retail, foodservice, commodity-processing, distribution, and supplier issues are handled through specialized teams rather than the ordinary Consumer Affairs line.
If your issue involves a product recall, suspected illness, contamination, or a foreign object, do not discard the packaging until the matter has been documented. Keep the product isolated according to appropriate food-safety practices and contact Consumer Affairs promptly. Foster Farms has used its Consumer Affairs line and info@fosterfarms.com for recent recall-related consumer support.
Complaints may involve food quality, damaged packaging, foreign material, labeling, product freshness, suspected illness, retail availability, privacy, commercial accounts, or customer-service interactions. Before escalating, gather the package, product code, UPC, use-by date, receipt, photographs, store information, and a written timeline of the problem. For suspected foodborne illness, preserve relevant medical and purchase documentation.
Call 1-800-338-8051 and provide Consumer Affairs with the full product information and description of the complaint. Explain where and when the item was purchased, whether it has been opened or consumed, and whether any injury or illness occurred. Ask for a complaint or reference number if one is available and record the name of the representative and date of contact.
If the matter involves a retail or foodservice account rather than an ordinary household purchase, contact the Foster Farms sales representative or account team responsible for that customer. Privacy matters should use privacy@fosterfarms.com or 1-800-255-7227, while media inquiries should use media@fosterfarms.com. Sending the issue to the correct department avoids delays caused by routing through Consumer Affairs.
If the first response does not adequately address the issue, ask Consumer Affairs or the applicable department for supervisor review. Provide the original complaint number, packaging information, photographs, receipts, and any response already received. Clearly state what remains unresolved, particularly if the issue involves a health concern, repeated product defect, significant financial loss, or disagreement over the proposed resolution.
Submit a written complaint through Foster Farms’ official Contact Us page or send supporting information to info@fosterfarms.com when appropriate. A written complaint should include your full contact details, product name, UPC, use-by date, manufacturing or plant codes, store and purchase date, photographs, and a concise timeline. Written documentation creates a clearer record if further escalation becomes necessary.
For a serious unresolved matter, write to Foster Farms, 1000 Davis Street, Livingston, CA 95334. Reference all prior complaint numbers and communications, attach copies rather than original documents, and state the action you are requesting. Corporate correspondence is more appropriate after Consumer Affairs and specialized support channels have already been given a reasonable opportunity to investigate.
Food-safety complaints should be treated differently from routine taste or packaging complaints. If Foster Farms announces a recall or requests that consumers stop using a product, follow the recall instructions precisely. Privacy complaints should use the company’s privacy team, while commercial contractual disputes should be handled through the relevant account, procurement, or legal contact rather than consumer support.
For poultry safety, misbranding, contamination, or recall-related concerns involving federally inspected poultry products, the relevant federal regulator may be the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA FSIS). Other food products or issues can fall under the FDA or a state food-safety authority depending on jurisdiction and product type. A health department may also be appropriate when a suspected foodborne illness is involved.
For unresolved retail-consumer issues that are not primarily food-safety matters, customers may contact the relevant state Attorney General or consumer-protection agency. If the problem involves an unauthorized payment or transaction rather than product quality, contact the card issuer or payment provider as well. Maintain complete receipts, photographs, emails, and complaint reference numbers before filing externally.
Serious claims involving injury, substantial damages, or commercial contract disputes may require formal legal advice. Review any applicable product terms, purchase contracts, insurance documentation, or business agreements before proceeding. Formal legal action should generally be considered only after the company’s normal complaint process and relevant regulatory or consumer remedies have been evaluated.
