Gainesville, Georgia
Managed IT Services & Cybersecurity for Gainesville’s Poultry, Manufacturing & Logistics Industry
Gainesville is widely recognized as the “Poultry Capital of the World” — Mar-Jac Poultry, founded in 1954 and headquartered in Gainesville, produces roughly 2 million birds per week across facilities in Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. Georgia is the nation’s largest poultry-producing state, and the Port of Savannah — the primary export gateway — handled 55,957 refrigerated container units of frozen poultry exports in a recent 12-month period, an 8.5% increase, accounting for 37% of all U.S. frozen poultry exports. The Gainesville Inland Port, opened by the Georgia Ports Authority, gives Hall County’s concentrated poultry production a direct rail option to Savannah, reducing reliance on truck-only export routes.
Gainesville’s economy has diversified significantly beyond poultry: international manufacturers including Kubota Manufacturing of America and ZF have established advanced manufacturing operations in the region, and Agile Cold Storage invested more than $60 million in a 150,000-square-foot cold storage facility supporting the poultry supply chain.
Lionhive provides Managed IT Services, OT/IT Integration, and Cybersecurity & Compliance to the poultry processors, manufacturers, and logistics operators of Gainesville.
