Ford's Locker

Family Owned Business for 80 years! We've got the best beef jerky and dog treats in the state! Ford's has been a Family Owned Business for 70 years.

We started our business doing Game Processing and Beef Jerky (which we still do!). Over the years we have come up with many flavors of jerky, as well as treats for your dog!! All of our products (beef jerky, dog jerky treats, bones, etc.) are 100% naturally smoked! Also, we are proud to announce that the Utah Search & Rescue team uses our dog treats to train their dogs.

We are saddened to share that Ford’s Locker will not be coming back. For 80 years, this business has been built on a foundation of good business and the relationships we’ve shared with all of you. We are truly grateful for the support you’ve given us throughout the years, the good and the bad. We will miss the daily interactions that made this work so rewarding.

To those directly affected by the fire this past December: we recognize the time and effort that goes into every hunt, and we truly understand the loss you incurred.

It is our intention to reimburse a portion of those hunt costs once the sale of the property is finalized. We do not have the exact figures or a specific timeline yet, but we wanted to be clear about our plan to do right by those who were impacted.

Thank you for being such a vital part of our 80 year history. We are closing this chapter with nothing but respect and gratitude for this community.

With sincerity,

The Ford Family

Update on Refunds

We want to share a quick update and be as transparent as possible.

We are actively working through customer information and sending refund checks as quickly as we can. We truly appreciate everyone’s patience while we do this.

We also understand that many people have disputed the charges on their credit cards. That reaction is completely understandable. However, those disputes are unfortunately slowing the refund process down.

When a charge is disputed, we do not receive the customer’s name or contact information. We only see the last four digits of the card, which makes it very difficult to match payments and issue refunds correctly.

If you have not disputed your charge, please continue to be patient and allow us to process your refund directly.

If you have already disputed a charge, please send me a direct message as soon as possible so we can note it in our records and make sure nothing gets missed.

We appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support while we work through this the right way. If you have questions or concerns, please contact us directly.

Thank you,
Ford’s Locker

Just a quick update for everyone.

Some refund checks are already on their way, and we are continuing to work through the rest as carefully and steadily as possible. This is a process that takes time, and we are doing our best to make sure everyone is handled properly.

We truly appreciate the patience and understanding that so many of you have shown. Thank you for bearing with us as we work through this.

Important Update Regarding Refunds – Please Read

We want to provide a clear update on where we are in the refund process for wild game deposits and turkeys that were dropped off to be smoked.

The process has already begun, and I am actively working through our records and contacting customers directly to return the money that was paid to us. Our goal is to make sure every person is paid back correctly and fairly, and we are taking this step by step to ensure nothing is missed.

It is extremely important that charges are not disputed with your card company. Disputes are significantly disrupting this process and can result in duplicate payments, delays, and additional complications. We have closed the account associated with those payments and are handling refunds directly.

Please know that I will be reaching out very shortly to those affected. There is no need to contact us at this time. Allowing us to complete this process in an organized way helps ensure that everyone is taken care of properly.

We truly appreciate the patience and understanding many of you have shown. This has been a heavy and complex situation, but we are committed to handling it with integrity and respect for the people who have supported Ford’s for generations.

Thank you for your continued patience and cooperation.

We want to share an important update and also say thank you.

Again, the support we have felt from this community has been overwhelming and deeply moving. From the kind messages and prayers, to people offering to donate their own harvested meat to help others who were affected, the grace and compassion shown has meant more to us than we can put into words. We truly see it, and we are incredibly thankful.

This past week, we have been working carefully and intentionally on what steps we can take next. The first step we are moving toward is reimbursing customers who put money down on their animals that had not yet been processed. The money that was given to us this year is money we feel strongly about returning. This will be done directly from Ford’s, independent of any insurance outcomes, simply because it is the right thing to do.

Ford’s has been part of this community for over 80 years, not because of shortcuts or excuses, but because of honesty, integrity, and generations of customers who trusted us. Our family takes that responsibility seriously, and we are committed to doing what we can, the right way.

We are planning to issue reimbursement checks in the coming weeks and will be contacting customers directly to gather mailing addresses once the process is finalized. Please don’t message yet — we have everyone’s phone number and will reach out when we are ready to move forward.

We are also actively reviewing the situations of customers who had already been contacted to pick up their meat, as well as those who brought turkeys in to be smoked for Christmas. Those will be addressed in additional steps, and we will share another update once we have more clarity.

We know this doesn’t fix everything, and we know patience is still being asked of you. But please know this comes from a place of respect and gratitude for the people who have supported Ford’s for so many years. We are taking action, and we will continue to communicate as we move forward.

Thank you again for the kindness, understanding, and trust you have shown during an incredibly difficult time.

I wanted to take a moment to speak directly about the wild game that was inside Ford’s at the time of the fire.

I know how deeply personal this is. For so many of you, that animal represents time in the mountains, memories with family, and a lot of hard work. I understand how heavy this loss feels, and I want you to know that we see you and we feel the weight of it too.

This was a total loss fire, and all wild game that had been entrusted to us was lost. Right now, we are still in the middle of the investigation and insurance process, and we honestly do not have clear answers yet on how reimbursement or next steps will be handled. I know how hard it is to sit with that uncertainty, and I wish I could give more concrete information right now.

Please know this: we are not ignoring this, and we are not walking away from it. We are actively working through it every day, asking questions, and trying to understand what options may be available. As soon as we have real, confirmed information, we will share it here.

Thank you to everyone who has shown patience, kindness, and grace during this incredibly painful time. This page will continue to be the main place we share updates, and we truly appreciate your understanding as we take this one step at a time.

As I’m sure many of you are aware, we experienced a devastating fire at Ford’s early Tuesday morning. The outpouring of love, prayers, messages, and support from this community has been overwhelming, and we are deeply grateful for it. Our hearts are heavy, but the kindness we’ve felt has meant more than we can put into words.

We know there are many customers still waiting on wild game processing. This was a total loss fire, and all wild game that had been entrusted to us was lost. We understand how personal and heartbreaking that is for so many families, and we share in that grief. Right now, there is a great deal of uncertainty as we work through the investigation and insurance process, and we do not currently have a timeline for what the next steps will look like.

This will be a long and difficult road for us. We kindly ask for patience and understanding as we take things one step at a time. At this moment, we don’t have answers to many of the questions being asked, but we promise to share updates as soon as we are able.

We are receiving a very high volume of phone calls, and we respectfully ask that you follow this page for updates, as this will be the primary place we communicate new information moving forward. This will help us focus on working through next steps during this difficult time.

For those local to Utah, our sister company, Clear Creek Pet Products in Spanish Fork, is still operating and carries some of the dog treat items that were previously available at Ford’s.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your patience, compassion, and continued support during one of the hardest moments our family and business have ever faced.

We added the smoked salmon treats last week and they’ve already become a customer favorite. No fillers, no added oils, just salmon. If your dog loves fish, this one is an easy win.
You can also grab any of our other treats while the sale is running. Our beef lung is light but still flavorful. The tendons and trachea are great for keeping active chewers busy. Duck feet and pig ears are as natural as it gets. Pick a few varieties and see what your dog goes for.
