While we won’t solve the age-old chicken and egg riddle, you will hear tales about another fowl – one whose popularity is on the rise: duck.

With its roast half duck, Leesburg-based Maple Leaf Farms is the latest winner of the Indiana Chamber’s Coolest Thing Made in Indiana contest. The company also is coming off a record surge in demand in 2022 (well before the “Coolest” title). Its products are available in all 50 states and distributed to more than 40 countries.

In this edition, Maple Leaf Farms Co-President Scott Tucker dispels myths about duck and gets candid about the family business’s growth, its “super-secret” operations and dealing with workforce and inflation challenges.
