See how Schwertner Farms reinvests in its business through dividends

For Schwertner Farms, workplace safety is just part of doing good business. As one of the largest livestock dealers in the country, the company has trusted Texas Mutual to protect its employees and operations for many years.
"We're proud to have somebody like Texas Mutual handling our camp because they've got the same reputation in Texas," said Tom Madden, General Manager of Schwertner Farms, Inc.
That shared commitment to safety has paid off in more ways than one. Through Texas Mutual's industry-leading dividend program, Schwertner Farms has earned dividends for maintaining a strong safety culture and getting their employees home safe to their families.
"When we receive that dividend, that gives everybody warm budgets because our employees did a good job by staying safe," Madden said.
Those dividends are more than just a financial return; they help ensure the company's continued growth and success. Schwertner Farms reinvests those funds into new equipment, safer facilities and improvements that keep operations running smoothly and efficiently.
"The dividends are part of our profitability, part of our bottom line," Madden said. "They keep us in the black instead of the red."
For businesses across Texas, Texas Mutual's dividend program rewards companies that invest in workplace safety while helping strengthen their long-term success.
"We like to say that Texas Mutual [is] doing its best to make Texas a stronger, safer place," Madden said.
