HISTORICAL NOTE: "In 1939 Sam Hausman brought 20 years of South Texas meat industry experience to Corpus Christi, & opened Sam Hausman Meat Packer. The tiny family business started with four employees, including Samâs wife, Fannie. Today Hausman Foods employs 120 at two processing plants, & is still located in the Texas coastal city. Sam & Fannie were both raised in European families that made their living in the meat business, & both knew the secret to success: dependable quality & value. Corpus Christi customers quickly learned they would get a good product every time from the Hausman shop. As the family tradition of providing consistently good product at a good price endured, Sam Hausman Meat Packer grew steadily throughout the 1940âs, & by the 1950âs the original shop was too small. Now in his 60âs, Sam Hausman found a larger facility capable of handling many times the amount of fresh beef, & a new plant opened with fanfare in May, 1955. Sam Hausman was known throughout the region as a person who gave back to his community & who always rewarded the good work of his loyal employees. His was above all a dedicated husband, father & grandparent. Shortly after the joyful move into the new facility, there was a very sad time. Sam Hausman became ill & passed away in 1958. The reins passed to son-in-law David Holliday, a long time plant executive who had performed every job at the business. Holliday guided Hausman through a super-competitive era during the 1960âs. At the end of the decade the company torch was passed to the 3rd Hausman generation: Davidâs sons Rick & Steve Holliday. Rick became president & Steve was vice-president. The brothers, just in their 20âs, had grown up working at the family plant & now worked tirelessly to produce ever-higher quality foods. Sam Hausman Meat Packer attracted new customers, & a new reputation emerged: Hausman was at the cutting edge of the changing industry. Increasing business brought the need for a newer & even larger facilities, & a 20,000 square-foot plant was built on Beacon Street in 1975 equipped with the 1st cryogenic freezer in South Texas. Hausman expanded into value added beef, pork & chicken custom & preferred label products for the national & international food industry, including gourmet steaks, smoked brisket, pre-breaded beef & pork, hand cut steaks & cutlets, marinated proteins, individually quick frozen hamburger patties, smoked briskets & ribs, fully cooked Mexican food entrees, sauces & more. In 2001, Hausman doubled its processing space by occupying a 2nd 20,000 square foot plant. In 2005 Rick & Steve Holliday retired. Steven R. McClure, Sr., who was lured to Hausman in 1990 from a GM position at another food manufacturer, became President & CEO in 2005. As so many who have worked at Hausman have said over the past seven decades, Steve McClure says, âThis company is like family to me.â Two of Sam Hausmanâs great-grandchildren, Amy Seward & Jerry Simpson, became vice-presidents. Serving an international clientele, the company became Hausman Foods in 2005 & is ranked among the nationâs top 200 producers by Meat Processor magazine. The company adopted the slogan âInnovative Custom Protein Processorsâ to emphasize beef, pork & poultry custom-process capabilities for regional & national chains. In 2008 Hausman Foods marked its 70th year by producing âchicken fried bacon,â winner of the Texas State Fair Big Tex Choice Award for taste, christened âthe talk of the fairâ by the Dallas Morning News. From the days of sawdust-covered floors to todayâs cryogenic freezing processes, Hausman Foods has a proud history of providing the best for its customers, its employees & community. Sam Hausmanâs original commitment of excellence now spans four generations, & just as in 1939, consistent quality is our promise to our ever-growing customer base.";;
