Where poultry and manufacturing share the plateau

Albertville sits atop Sand Mountain at about 1,060 feet, and its slogan is The Heart of Sand Mountain. Its employers include a fire hydrant maker, Mueller Company, along with poultry processors Wayne Farms, Pilgrim's Pride and Tyson Foods, plus a wholesale grocery distributor.^[2]

Albertville is home to poultry plants operated by Wayne Farms, Pilgrim's Pride and Tyson Foods. Around a poultry town, many properties are connected to chicken houses, equipment sheds and farm shops, while the city side has room for commercial and warehouse buildings. If you are planning either one, it helps to start with how the building will be used.^[2,3]
