The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation will provide $2.75 million in state income tax credits for a $125 million expansion at Carl Buddig and Company’s Sheboygan facilities.
Carl Buddig and Company acquired a large facility that it plans to renovate and equip in Sheboygan for its Old Wisconsin product line. The new facility will be designed to accommodate advanced manufacturing processes, expand production capacity by approximately 195,000 square feet, and create 75 new jobs.
The amount of credits the company will receive depends on the number of jobs created and capital invested in the project.
The project also includes targeted upgrades across Carl Buddig and Company’s Old Wisconsin operation to support the continued growth of the Old Wisconsin, YUMBO, and private label partner brands.
Carl Buddig and Company is a family-owned meat manufacturer that focuses on deli meats, meat snacks, and other ready-to-eat products. Old Wisconsin production is based in Sheboygan and focuses on producing meat sticks and summer sausages.
“This expansion reflects strong momentum behind the Old Wisconsin, YUMBO, and private label brands and their commitment to scaling capacity to meet accelerating demand,” said Christopher Witte, president of Carl Buddig and Company.
