Local Kentucky Cattlemen’s Ground Beef Expands into 4 New Western Kentucky Kroger Stores
As of August 14, consumers will now be able to find and purchase Kentucky Cattlemen’s Ground beef in four new Kroger locations in Western Kentucky. This fresh and natural (no artificial ingredients, minimally processed) 80/20 ground beef is provided by Kentucky farm families who share a commitment to animal care and the environment. From farm to table, Kentucky cattlemen and local businesses will be supported to provide the Bluegrass with a delicious ground beef product.
The product, distributed by Beef Solutions, LLC, will now be available in all 89 Kroger stores. The new locations include three in Bowling Green and one in Hopkinsville. Many entities across the state have worked hard to bring a local beef option directly to consumers through a large, readily available retail chain. The ground beef is sourced, processed and packaged in Kentucky and will be sold in a 1 pound package as well as a 2 lb (4 patties) package.
“As the largest beef producer east of the Mississippi, Kentucky cattlemen are excited and proud to offer a great beef product to our neighbors and family through such a reputable grocery store such as Kroger,” stated Jeff Pettit, Beef Solutions Chairman.
Beef Solutions was formed to provide a pathway for Kentucky’s cattle farmers to sell a locally produced and marketed ground beef, guiding the product from the Kentucky farm to the Kentucky consumer.

LEXINGTON, KY. (May 19, 2017) - On Friday, May 19, Beef Solutions, LLC received funding from the Kentucky Agricultural Development Fund. Beef Solutions, LLC was formed to provide a pathway for Kentucky’s cattle producers to enter the market for locally produced and marketed ground beef, guiding the product from the Kentucky farm to the meat counter.
Beef Solutions will provide a way for Kentucky consumers to purchase local ground beef and a way for Kentucky retailers to have a reliable, source verified product. While it will probably be fall before the product hits the shelves, the venture will provide a fresh, local 80/20 Kentucky ground beef product, “Kentucky Cattlemen’s Ground Beef”, that will be available to purchase in 1 pound packages.
“Our producers are thrilled to finally be able to offer Kentucky beef to consumers across the Commonwealth,” stated Dave Maples, Kentucky Cattlemen’s Association Executive Vice President. “As the largest beef producing state east of the Mississippi River, it is only fitting that we have our very own Kentucky beef product.”
The funding through the Agricultural Development Board includes a grant in the amount of $127,096 to begin operations and sustain the business until its operations have reached a sufficient scale to sustain itself.
The project will be worked on throughout the summer and a plan for a Kentucky Proud ground beef product to be on Kroger shelves is planned for Fall 2017. For more information contact the KCA office at 859-278-0899 or visit www.kentuckycattlemensbeef.com.
