We would like to take this opportunity to let you know a little about who we are, where we came from, and where we are heading.
Five S Plus is a family-owned business. The owners are Aaron & Erin Slayter along with Will & Shelly Travis. Although we have just begun our ranching and farming operations, we have operated a family-owned business since 1979.
The Lord has blessed us with the opportunity to enter into this line of business, and we intend to stay in it as long as He wants us to.
Our operation is located on 7,000 acres in both Grant Parish and Rapides Parish, Louisiana and is bordered by the Red River and Kateland Gin Road. We have approximately 3,000 acres of this land used strictly for our cattle operation. Holden Vallee is our Vice President/ Ranch and Farm Manager, and he does a great job. We believe his hard work and leadership will help Five S Plus achieve its long-term goals and vision. We are truly excited to have him as a representative of our family.
Our long-term plans are to have a commercial beef and club calf operation with over 800 head of cows. Over the last few years, we have been adding quality cows and bulls from highly respected cattle ranches such as Sitz Ranch, 3C Christensen Ranch, and DeJong Ranch to our existing herd. We have purchased the types of herd bulls that we think will work best with our cows to put top-notch calves on the ground.
At Five S Plus, we produce quality cattle capable of winning in the show ring and performing in the pasture. We work hard day in and day out to be recognized throughout the industry for superior genetics and integrity in our profession.
We would like to thank all of our customers for their purchases of Five S Plus cattle for 4-H and FFA projects or for their breeding programs. We assure you that we will continue striving to please each customer with quality cattle and service that is second to none.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
