A Quick Look at Our Services

Gemstone Foods offers a variety of poultry products to meet your needs. One of our most popular offerings is individually quick‑frozen (IQF) poultry. These include precision hand‑trimmed portions and tenders (fresh, marinated, IF, and frozen), strips and nuggets (fresh and marinated), and mechanically sized portions and chops.

Our services and solutions include front half deboning (FHD) and whole bird deboning (WOG). FHD removes breast meat, tenderloin meat, and wings from the frame. From there, the product is resized, marinated, and/or IQF processed as requested. The products are then boxed for return to the customer.
