Food & Beverages - Table, Arizona, United States
Midwestern Meats is a family owned Arizona business specializing in cornfed beef shipped in directly from Iowa. The company was founded by expert meat cutter, Roger McConnell, who began the company in 1991 at the age of 45. At a time where people his age was eyeing retirement, Roger decided to go for his dream, cashed in his retirement savings to open up Midwestern Meats in a 2000 square foot store on Main Street in Mesa, Arizona. He had only one other employee and for the first 3 years, worked 18-hour days doing everything from butchering to helping customers to mopping the shop floors. His wife Sally, a homemaker for most of their marriage, took her first day job to help pay the bills, and spent nights doing the bookkeeping for the store. For the next 20 years, Midwestern Meats has grown to 50 employees, a bakery and a restuarant located in a 15,000 square foot location. It also sells its products online under www.megameatstore.com and has even expanded its line of foods through its newest division, Midwestern Fitness. Although Roger is no longer involved in the day to day aspects of the business, his vision and philosophy remains part of the company under the leadership of his son, Rod McConnell.
