

February 29, 2024

If you’ve experienced a party or holiday in Wisconsin, then you know brats are a must. In this segment, we take you to the source. Join Eric in a behind the scenes look at Johnsonville’s global headquarters to learn more about the history, innovation and sustainability behind how this iconic Wisconsin brand makes their sausage.

Did you know?
• Johnsonville is the #1 sausage producer in the nation, and they export to 42 different countries.
• The original facility that still stands and is a part of the daily operation, dates back to the 1940s.
• The 3 classic Wisconsin staples (beer, cheese and sausage) all require fermentation and culture.

With such a global operation, Johnsonville knows the importance of sustainability, and has a team of people who focus on not letting anything go to waste. In fact, the parts of the pig that we don’t eat get resourced to animal feed, fertilizer, biofuel, even utilized in medicine.

And next time you’re in the Sheboygan area, stop by the Johnsonville Marketplace – it’s the only location that has the entire selection of sausages that Johnsonville makes that they sell anywhere in the Unites States!

Pork has become an integral part of Wisconsin culture, with its delicious flavor profile and delightful versatility. From local family-owned pork farms to America’s favorite sausage-producing corporations, Wisconsin prides itself on being home to the makers of the highest quality of pork.
