Where’s the beef? Across Wisconsin.
Gov. Tony Evers and the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection announced Monday that 18 meat processors in the state will receive grants via the 2026 Meat Processor Infrastructure Grant Program.
The program was created by Evers in 2021 to help local meat processors modernize and grow their businesses.
“The Meat Processor Infrastructure Program continues to support Wisconsin meat processing businesses year after year as they grow and innovate,” said DATCP Secretary Randy Romanski in a statement. “I’m proud that grant recipients continue to use this as an opportunity to strengthen their operations and process quality products for consumers in Wisconsin and abroad.”
A total of $700,000 was made available for this year’s meat processor grants. Grants were capped at $50,000.
