What is a packing house?

A packing house is a facility where agricultural products, such as fruits, vegetables, or meat, are sorted, cleaned, packaged, and prepared for distribution to retailers or customers. Workers in packing houses are responsible for inspecting the quality of the products, operating machinery, and ensuring that all packaging meets safety and quality standards. Packing houses play a crucial role in the supply chain by making sure that food products are properly handled and ready for sale or shipment.
