Following rejection of an application by Strauss Brands to erect a new plant in Milwaukee, the company will move the project to their hometown of Franklin, WI. Strauss Brands currently operates a plant 41,000 square feet in extent providing employment for 170.
The proposed facility would process between 250 and 500 cattle per day and employee 260 workers. A public hearing will take place in early October to approve the new plant that could benefit from a tax rebate passed in 2018.
