Schneider's early years and employment in the local button industry before beginning to make and sell sausage door to door.

Schneider shares that during the winter months approximately 1450 people work at the plant increasing to more than 1500 during busier times of the year, which may include summer students to cover staff vacations. The host and Schneider discuss a centennial project at Doon Pioneer Village for which the company built a butcher shop, before concluding with a discussion about control of the company and plans for possible expansion in the area.
