Inside CFS: Latest News and Updates

   

A NEW CHAPTER: HONORING BILL’S RETIREMENT

After decades of dedication and innovation, Bill Altenpohl, the president and founder of Computerway Food Systems (CFS), has announced his retirement. Under Bill's leadership, CFS has transformed from a small home business into a leading provider of advanced solutions for the food processing industry. 


Founded in 1986 as Chickway Systems, Inc. in partnership with AutoSystems, Ltd. of the United 

Kingdom, CFS has grown to become a fully U.S.-owned enterprise. Bill’s passion for engineering 

and his deep roots in the poultry industry, cultivated through years spent working alongside his father, fueled the company’s commitment to developing innovative overhead sizing, grading, and weighing lines, as well as integrated production and inventory tracking systems. 


Throughout his tenure, Bill has prioritized building strong relationships with clients, ensuring that CFS remains a company dedicated to customer loyalty and satisfaction. His vision and dedication have been instrumental in shaping the company’s culture and success. 


As Bill embarks on this new chapter of his life, we celebrate his remarkable contributions to CFS and the lasting impact he has made on the food processing industry. While he will be greatly missed, his legacy will continue to inspire all of us at Computerway Food Systems. 


We wish Bill a fulfilling retirement filled with new adventures.
