As a family-owned company, we know that good people are essential to our success. Whether you work for JDH or one of our three subsidiary brands, you’ll find the same kind of supportive environment. From mills and trans-load facilities to corporate offices, our jobs are a safe place to grow and reach your potential.
You don’t need a background in agriculture to thrive with JDH. If you have the right mindset, we can teach you the rest.
You know your customers’ needs better than anyone else. Even though we operate all over the map, decision-making stays at the local level.
Our business is stronger than ever because we’re not afraid to try new things. As the industry keeps evolving, we need more innovative ways to challenge the status quo.
Our financial stability gives us the resources to invest right back into our people. We offer ongoing training and development programs to support your personal career goals.
Details may vary by role and location.
We focus our charitable donations and volunteering within the communities where we live and work. Each subsidiary company has a giving committee that works together to decide where our funds can make the biggest impact.
Working together safely as a team means knowing and trusting the people around you. Every location is a little different, but we all value time spent together with annual parties, company outings and other fun activities.
Every year, facilities have the opportunity to win our highly competitive and prestigious safety award — named after the company matriarch and granddaughter of our founder. The winning facility (as determined by a panel of plant managers) earns a coveted trophy, $1,000 cash for each employee and a face-to-face dinner with JDH executives.
You’re not seeing double—promise. 👀

Proud to partner with BNSF Railway to serve one of the largest feed markets in the U.S. Our Stratford, Texas unit train receiver helps us unload railcars efficiently and maintain steady service to dairies, feedyards and hog producers across West Texas. Thanks to the Stratford team for setting the standard high, and to the BNSF for being a great partner to our customers and communities.Where markets “moooove” and grow, so does the need for freight transportation. As one of the largest feed markets in the U.S., West Texas relies on BNSF to serve those needs, and we’re feeding off our proven success there to grow with a major provider.
JDH specializes in providing feed, grain and other commodities to dairies, feedyards, other livestock producers and aquaculture businesses. A key asset in serving the region is a new $60 million state-of-the-art unit train receiver facility right next to our rail network in the heart of cattle country in Stratford, Texas.
Located north of Amarillo and on 500 acres with a double loop track, this BNSF-served facility is built to efficiently unload railcars and keep product flowing to local dairies, feedlots and hog producers. In a region with some 10 million head of livestock, speed and reliability matter, and this site delivers both. ... See MoreSee Less
