The Vigor of Swift & Company Continues Only Because of Service The only “control” over the packing industry is the “control” that gathers about the ability to do a necessary job in the best way. Swift & Company has reached a lead- ing place in the industry because the size and character of the job of providing a nation’s meat require the wide and tiorough organization, the experience and devotion to duty, found in an institu- tion like Swift & Company. The moment Swift & Company ceases to perform its functions of usefulness with the greatest efficiency and satisfaction to the people, its position in the industry will vanish. Swift & Company service is performed at a profit of a fraction of a cent per pound.
