With Turkey Day just around the corner, everyone's racing to secure their holiday bird, if they haven't done so already. With demand for turkeys peaking every November, supermarket shelves have been diligently packed, emptied and restocked throughout the past few weeks — but this frenetic activity is just the tip of the supply chain apparatus that puts them there. Food shippers throughout the US spend most of the year preparing for the holiday rush, laying in a stockpile of frozen birds in anticipation of the holiday season, then working with supermarkets, wholesalers and other distribution partners to ensure that shipments arrive just in time. And in case you were wondering, this is pretty big business. In 2021, US turkey production was worth an estimated $5.9 billion, with some 216 million turkeys raised, on average, in the US each year. With all the logistics and supply chain efforts involved, a considerable portion of these turkeys is distributed in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving, ensuring that every household can enjoy a delicious, perfectly roasted turkey as the centerpiece of their holiday gatherings. Now, our question for you: Of those many millions of turkeys produced each year, how many will be consumed this Thanksgiving holiday? Make your best guess, or serve up your favorite turkey-themed fun fact in the comments section below! #TurkeyDay #supplychain #food #shipping #thanksgiving
