Poultry Capital of the World

About this city

Also known as: Poultry Capital of the World

Springdale is an industrial juggernaut and highly progressive multicultural metropolis situated deep within the rolling limestone ridges of Northwest Arkansas. Famously celebrated as the international corporate headquarters of Tyson Foods, the world's largest meat processor, the city developed rapidly from a historic mid-19th-century settlement known as Shiloh. Today, Springdale features a booming industrial core, an exceptionally vibrant Hispanic-American cultural melting pot, and a beautifully revitalized historic downtown arts corridor.
