On May 2, 2023 the Daviess County CEO Cohort traveled to Odon, IN to visit with Norman Swartzentruber at Odon Locker. What a hands on experience. This little shop has grown over the years in Southern IN, an old fashioned butcher shop. Beef, pork, and lamb custom processing & fully supplied retail store. Norman gave the cohort a tour of the business and it just so happened to be butcher day and very busy, so interesting. Odon Locker has grown from a small shop to employing 90 full-time and part-time employees.
As the website says, “Odon Locker is a family owned business. They process beef, pork and lamb and sell retail meats. A meat cutter is on duty for all your special cuts.” It was very interesting to hear Norman talk about how the Odon Locker came by its name. Norman shared with the Cohort to know what their expenses will be when running a business. Some are very unexpected and we take them for granted when we shop and dine. He took the time to show us the different cuts of meat. Thank you Norman for sharing your knowledge and allowing us to intrude on a very busy day plus sampling some jerky.
