Tailgaters and brat fans of Wisconsin, rejoice!
One of the world’s leading producers of sauerkraut is moving its headquarters to Wisconsin and expanding its manufacturing operations in the state, with help from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC).
In a move that will create 60 high-paying jobs, support Wisconsin’s agricultural economy and add a fresh twist to its rich tradition of fermentation, Fermented Food Holdings, Inc. is investing $13 million to expand local production in Bear Creek and relocate its corporate headquarters to Madison. WEDC is assisting the expansion with $500,000 in performance-based tax credits. The amount of credits the company will receive is contingent on the amount of capital invested and the number of jobs created.
