Founded in 1952, Chore-Time’s growth is largely attributed to their continued emphasis on product quality and local service. These two items along with the help of many loyal employees have brought the company to its present position of international

leadership in poultry and hog equipment. In addition to its headquarters and manufacturing facility located in Milford, the international company consists of an Air Systems division in Milford; Chore-Time Brock, Athens, Georgia; Chore-Time N.V., Maldegem, Belgium and now the Pockman division in Decatur, Alabama. According to Charles Stump, vice president and assistant

general manager, “The addition of Pockman cages and related equipment to the company’s existing line enables Chore-Time and its many local distributors to offer a complete line of equipment and increased service for poultrymen worldwide.” In addition to his international responsibilities Mr. Ramser currently is president and general manager of Chore-Time Brock division located in Athens. It is from this location the company manufacturers and distributes all cage feeder systems and related equipment. An operations committee has been established for the new division of Chore-Time. It consists of Mr. Ramser, vice president of Chore-Time and manager of subsidiaries and international sales: Richard Dahlstrom, general sales manager of all operations, and John Redsecker, plant manager of the Chore-Time manufacturing operations. $225 damage in two-car collision A two-car collision Wednesday resulted in $225 in damage.
