After the death of its founder, the J.R. Simplot Co. will continue as a family owned agricultural company with no anticipated changes, said Scott Simplot.
"It would be a surprise to me if we change anything,"said Simplot, the company chairman and J.R. Simplot's son. "What opportunities walk in the door six months from now, it's impossible to know. But there isn't something in the hopper that's about to jump out."
J.R. Simplot, a billionaire best known for providing McDonald's Corp. with its frozen french fries, died Sunday at his Boise home at age 99.
