Today, Zangger Popcorn Hybrids, a family-owned business in the heart of Nebraska’s popcorn belt, produces 20%-30% of the world’s hybrid popcorn seeds. Seven years later, Zangger Popcorn Hybrids was officially in the seed business. The Zangger family has built a family popcorn operation into an international seed genetics business. In addition to the Zanggers, North Loup is home to Popcorn County USA, a popcorn grower, processor and distributor that also has an international footprint. Zangger popcorn seeds fall through the hand of employee Jesse Small at the business’s North Loup facility.
