CORDELE — Stripling’s General Store was named a finalist in the recent Georgia Family Business of the Year competition in the Small Category (fewer than 50 employees).
“Our sausage is a unique, original product on which we have built a successful business,” company spokeswoman Ashley Goss said. “It is the backbone of Stripling’s operations. Our hot hog country sausage was formulated in 1964.
“The recipe for the sausage has not changed in over 45 years. Our reputation, our brand recognition, our business has been built around this single product. We are extremely proud of it.”
Most recently, Stripling’s acquired a federally inspected processing facility, which has allowed them ship sausage, jerky and other specialty items all over the United States, sell wholesale and manufacture for third party entities. They have also begun shipping jerky directly overseas to APO/FPO addresses.
