NASHVILLE, N.C., Oct. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- It is with profound sadness that Braswell Family Farms announces the passing of Scott Braswell, the company's beloved 3rd generation CEO. Scott passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones, leaving behind a legacy of dedication, leadership, and transformative impact on the company he helped shape into what it is today.
In 1991, Scott Braswell assumed leadership of Braswell Family Farms, a company with deep roots in the community and a steadfast commitment to producing quality specialty eggs and feed solutions. With a vision to expand the company while staying true to its family values, Scott led Braswell Family Farms through a period of remarkable growth.

Beyond his business achievements, Scott was a pillar of the community. He was widely respected for his philanthropy and active participation in local events. His leadership extended beyond corporate success; it was defined by a focus on community, sustainability, and instilling family values throughout the company culture.
Scott's influence reached far beyond the boardroom. He was a loving husband, devoted father, and proud grandfather. His family was his source of strength, and he often credited them as his greatest motivation. Known for his deep faith in Christ, Scott openly shared his spiritual journey, particularly in later years as he overcame significant health challenges, providing inspiration to all who knew him.
Reflecting on his father's life, Trey Braswell, 4th generation CEO of Braswell Family Farms, shared, "If I could use one word to describe my father it's generous. He led with a compassionate heart and focused on running a company with relentless integrity. His impact on our family, the business, and everyone he met will continue to resonate for years to come."
Scott Braswell's life was a testament to what can be achieved through determination, kindness, and an unwavering commitment to one's principles. His passing is a significant loss, not only for the Braswell family but for the broader agricultural community as well.
While we grieve this profound loss, Braswell Family Farms remains steadfast in its mission. Our leadership team and dedicated staff are fully committed to upholding Scott's legacy, ensuring that the company continues to operate with the same excellence, integrity, and vision that have guided us for generations.
