It said the move will \u201cfoster closer collaboration, enhance team member agility and enable faster decision making.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Members of the Tyson family, which founded Tyson Foods, and several top executives have long been based in Arkansas.  <\/p>\n<p>A company spokesperson said no layoffs are associated with the relocations. It was not known how many office workers would make the move.<\/p>\n<p>Representatives for Chicago\u2019s mayor and Illinois\u2019s governor did not immediately respond to requests for comment. <\/p>\n<p>Tyson\u2019s decision deals another blow to Chicago\u2019s business community after hedge fund Citadel said in June it was moving its global headquarters from the city to Miami. Boeing also said this year it would move its headquarters to Arlington, Virginia, from Chicago, and Caterpillar announced plans to relocate to Texas from a Chicago suburb.<\/p>\n<p>Kellogg, however, based the corporate headquarters for its largest business, snacks, in Chicago after announcing a split into three independent companies this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Tyson gained its Chicago office when it acquired Hillshire Brands in 2014 and then ran its prepared foods business there. <\/p>\n<p>Last week, Tyson said Noelle O\u2019Mara, who was group president of prepared foods, left the job and would be replaced by Stewart Glendinning, who was chief financial officer. John R. Tyson, the son of the chairman of the company\u2019s board of directors, took over as finance chief this week.<\/p>\n<p> (Reporting by Tom Polansek; Editing by Nick Zieminski)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/tyson-foods-moves-corporate\/attachment\/tyson-chicken-nuggets-owned-by-tyson-foods-are-seen-for\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI940Z9-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI940Z9-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/tyson-foods-moves-corporate\/attachment\/file-photo-logo-of-tyson-foods-is-seen-in-davos\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI940ZA-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI940ZA-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tom Polansek CHICAGO (Reuters) \u2013 Tyson Foods Inc is joining other corporate heavyweights in moving jobs out of Illinois.
