Meat Processing Facility on 34 +/- Acres with Homes & RV Park in Taylor, Bienville Parish, LA
Wild Thang Custom Meats was founded in 2012 and on average processes between 1,800-2,300+ Deer, Hogs, Alligators, Elk, & exotics yearly. Conveniently located near I-20 between Minden and Gibsland. The facility is known for their meticulous hand trimming before each animal is processed into steaks, sausage, hamburger or (you name it). Each animal is kept separate from start to finish to ensure you receive only meat from the animal you delivered, whether delivered undressed or in an ice chest. The processor is currently running at 100% with a fully staffed driven butchering crew and has received a record number of animals through the early 24'-25' season. Typically, 15K-18K lbs. of smoked sausage is made yearly. Anticipation for another profitable busy year is in order.
As a customer of Wild Thang Meats I can honestly say the link sausage products are outstanding and consistent year to year. The current owner uses free social media platforms and runs no paid ads. Most customers come from word of mouth and community involvement. Potential growth from advertising is possible. A full list of available products can be found on their website WildThang | Custom Meat Processing: Deer, Hog, Elk, Bison. Wild Thang is a contributor to the Hunters for the Hungry Program providing regular contributions to the community.
Aside from processing animals, Wild Thang Meats also provides additional income and yearlong consistent revenue from:
-Euro Mounts (Deer, Elk, Exotics, Pig and Alligator Skulls and Hides)
-Crawfish Supplier (Live) (sold 15K lbs in 2024)
-Corn and Rice Bran Distributor
-3-year history of selling concessions at the Minden Recreation Center during the summer months. No contract is in place but current history is set to continue. Flattops, commercial fryers, warmers, and popcorn machines are in place at 3 stations located around the ball fields.
-RV Park (9 Complete-9 partially completed camper spots)
-Various Catering (Seller plans to reserve trailer)
The processing facility includes freezers, cutting/deboning room, skinning shed, final product packaging, office area (pickup/drop-off), a smoke house, euro mount area, tool room, etc. consisting of around 6,500/sq ft. Wild Thang also sells a select few packaged products to the public displayed in refrigerators in the office. Being licensed with the food and health administration allows this.
Situated on 34 acres the property contains a 1980 2,160/sq ft (4Bed-2Bath Home) considered the main residence. The home contains a mostly updated kitchen and living room area as well as the bathrooms. A fenced front yard and additional storage sheds are located in the yard. A furnished mobile home near the processor is used as living quarters for some of the staff. Another furnished mobile home located near the RV park is also used as living quarters for a staff employee. An older 1960's model 1,160 sq ft 2 bedroom home fully furnished would also make a great employee/guest home. The property is large enough to dispose of waste from game on the property with no adverse effects to the landscape.
An RV park was implemented in early 23'. The park consists of 9 fully functional spots with 50 Amp power, water and sewer hookups. An additional 9 spots contain water and sewer hookups but lack electric underground. A service pole/meter is in place to provide. Rock and electric are also ready for an additional 9 spots. No advertising has been done to promote the location. Employees from the sawmill (located within walking distance) could provide tenants as well as seasonal deer hunters in the area. A small pond is located in the center of the tract as well as a mature stand of hardwood along the north that provides some hunting opportunities. A portion of the tract contains a 14 year old unthinned pine plantation.
