As I recall, they lost a bunch of people in a plane crash many years ago and as a result limited growth to reasonable driving distance.

Obviously air travel is far safer now but the culture was embedded.

The reason they limit growth is because they refuse to freeze the beef. So with that policy, they can only travel something like up to 500 miles from their meat processing plants in refrigerated trucks. It has nothing to do with air travel.
