BALA CYNWYD, Pa., Oct. 27, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Pilgrim's Pride Corporation ("Pilgrim's Pride" or "the Company") (Nasdaq- PPC-News) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law.

The investigation concerns whether the Board of  Pilgrim's Pride breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders, which has resulted in a depressed stock price. For example, a price collusion class action has been filed in the broiler-chicken market that named Tyson and Pilgrim's Pride as defendants. According to the complaint, beginning in 2008, Tyson, Pilgrim's Pride and other companies in the industry colluded by sharing proprietary data and reducing production to support prices. Consequently, the investigation seeks to determine if the Board's actions has damaged Pilgrim's Pride.
