The History of Falcon Rice

Since 1942, the name Falcon has been synonymous with the rice industry of South Louisiana. Originally, the company dealt only in seed rice. In the fall, Edward and Evelyn Falcon purchased rough rice from area farmers, then cleaned, treated, and resold it for seed in the spring.
In 1950, the milling operation was installed and soon, Falcon Rice Mill began selling rice to the great cooks of South Louisiana under the brand names Ed´s, Randy´s, and Falcon Rice. Later, other brands were developed and marketed by Falcon Rice Mill, including Toro, Home Country, Jackpot, Cajun Style and the very popular Cajun Country brand of long, medium and popcorn rice.
Today, Falcon Rice Mill is one the few rice mills still owned and operated by the original family.  Mona Falcon Trahan, President, and Randy Falcon, Vice President, continues to maintain Falcon Rice Mill’s longstanding commitment to product excellence and superior customer service.  Mona Falcon Trahan as CEO manages the company. She is active in sales, business development and overseeing production and personnel.  Linda Thibodeaux serves as CFO and office manager in charge of Accounting and Accounts Payable.  Tom Dew and Russell Cormier as General Manager and Plant manager are other key members of our team.  They strive to maintain our reputation of quality products and excellent service to the trade.
Falcon Rice Mill continues to thrive with a strong domestic sales base extending from southwest Louisiana into Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia, and coast to coast from Florida to California. International sales are growing rapidly throughout Central America and the Caribbean Basin.
