The Pork segment is responsible for raising hogs, as well as producing and distributing fresh and frozen pork items to various clients, including further processors, food service companies, grocery retailers, and distributors. This division also manufactures biodiesel. Through its Commodity Trading and Milling (CT&M) arm, Seaboard procures, transports, and trades a variety of agricultural commodities such as wheat, corn, soybeans, and soybean meal. It also processes these into wheat flour, maize meal, animal feed, and other oilseed crush products. The Marine division offers cargo shipping services within the United States and across 26 countries in the Caribbean, Central America, and South America.

It also generates and sells electricity from a 51-megawatt cogeneration power plant, which is fueled by sugarcane by-products, natural gas, and other biomass. Operating as an independent power producer, the Power segment generates electricity that is supplied to the national grid of the Dominican Republic. Finally, the Turkey segment produces and processes organic turkey products. These are distributed to retail outlets, food service providers, and industrial clients, with exports reaching Mexico and other international markets.
