Three Generations.
One Standard.
QC Poultry was founded in 1998 by Nick Macis, a second-generation food business professional with deep roots in chicken production, sales, marketing, and purchasing. Today, his son Nicolas Macis serves as Vice President of Operations, bringing third-generation leadership focused on efficiency and innovation across all segments of the business.
We are a specialty house. Our primary business is deboning, cutting, marinating, and packaging whole chickens and chicken parts to create value-added products. We have built our reputation on the most demanding accounts in the industry — complex specifications, proprietary flavor profiles, and end-to-end attention to detail that sets a higher bar for what a specialty processor should deliver.

Precision Processing.
End to End.
QC Poultry's primary business is value-added processing: deboning, cutting, marinating, and packaging whole chickens and chicken parts to exact customer specifications. We develop proprietary marinades and flavor profiles for chain accounts and food manufacturers who demand consistency at scale.
From initial sourcing through final delivery, every step is managed with rigorous attention to detail. We maintain full chain-of-custody visibility so that every product that leaves our facility meets the specification it was built to.
Quality is in the Name
QC stands for Quality Control. It is not just our name — it is the operating principle behind every product that leaves our 30,000 sq ft Montebello facility.
USDA Plant & SQF Certified
Our Montebello facility is a USDA-inspected plant and SQF certified under GFSI — the Global Food Safety Initiative. We are also HACCP certified. These are not just credentials; they are the baseline we hold ourselves to every day.
End-to-End Traceability
We track every product from the point of origin through processing, packaging, and final delivery — maintaining full chain-of-custody visibility at every step.
