Pandemic causes food companies to cut back on product offerings to simplify supply chains and meet consumer demand. Labor crisis remains top challenge for industry, as COVID-19 accelerates challenge to make food manufacturing jobs attractive to workers.

Are they safe? Are they all shutting down because of virus spread? What are the plants doing to keep our workers and our food supply safe?
