Shuler Meats
Food IndustryShuler Meats, a family-owned meat market and wholesale distributor in Thomasville, North Carolina, has served its community since 1982. Known for delivering high-quality beef, pork, and poultry, the company has built a strong reputation for consistent product quality and personalized customer service.
Today, under the leadership of owner Wayne Shuler, Shuler Meats has evolved into a dual-channel operation. Managing a high-traffic retail meat market while supporting a large-scale wholesale distribution network, supplying restaurants, foodservice providers, and businesses across the region.
They further expanded into Cedar Lodge Market, diversifying their operations, creating two distinct retail experiences supported by a shared commitment to fresh products, and operational excellence.
Manual processes, including handwritten labels and traditional wrapping methods, slowed production and heightened opportunities for error. Pricing updates required employees to manually adjust multiple machines, consuming time and increasing risk of inconsistencies.
On the wholesale side, the need to label large volumes of chicken cases created additional strain. Without an automated solution, the team struggled to keep up with demand while maintaining the level of accuracy and presentation their customers expected.
Shuler Meats needed reliable, easy-to-use equipment to support this growth.
To modernize their workflow, Shuler Meats implemented a full range of DIGI equipment across both their retail and food industry wholesale operations.
In retail, DIGI wrappers and scales simplified daily processes by enabling efficient weighing, labeling and wrapping of fresh products including beef, poultry, and pork.
For wholesale operations, the DIGI DPS-800 II industrial scale labeler transformed how they process and label various types of chicken cases for high volume throughput with improved speed, accuracy, and consistency.
