MILFORD, IN (January 1, 2010) -- As part of the company’s ongoing commitment to customer service, Maple Leaf Farms recently revamped its shipping options and rates to make ordering its duck and chicken products online more affordable.

By partnering with food shipping experts, Maple Leaf Farms has added FedEx Ground and 2nd Day Air to its Overnight shipping options for online consumer orders. The new shipping rates are up to 70% lower than its former rates.

The Maple Leaf Farms online store features a variety of both ready-to-cook and fully cooked duck and chicken products that may be shipped within the continental United States, plus Alaska and Hawaii.

Orders placed through the online store are hand packed in a reusable, Styrofoam cooler with blocks of dry ice to ensure the products arrive frozen and in excellent condition. These coolers are then shrink wrapped to additionally protect the products. Visit the online store at www.mapleleaffarms.com/11.
