The company plans to expand its production lines in order to accommodate new and expanding contracts. The new project will create 300 new jobs in the area.

“This funding for our newest expansion is only the latest installment in a history of support. The abundant resources and opportunities available in Virginia and especially in Henry County continually bolster our business and further overall growth on all fronts,” said Monogram CEO Karl Schledwitz.

Monogram's product range includes meat snacks, corn dogs, pre-cooked bacon, smoked sausage, appetizers, pet treats, and other value-added meats. These products are sold under the company's brands such as Wild Bill’s, O’Brien’s, Trail’s Best, Hannah’s, Bull’s, and Snapps, as well as licensed brands Bass Pro Shop’s Uncle Buck’s, Johnsonville, Butterball, and Team Realtree.

Monogram Foods is a major co-packer and private label provider for strategic partners throughout the nation. The company is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee and operates facilities in Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Wisconsin.

“Since opening its food manufacturing operation in Henry County in 2009, Monogram Foods has created nearly 600 jobs in the Commonwealth,” said Secretary of Commerce and Trade Brian Ball.

“Monogram has quickly become one of the region’s top employers and we are honored that the company has chosen to reinvest here, creating an additional 300 high-quality jobs in the Commonwealth. We congratulate Monogram on its remarkable growth, and are confident the company will continue to succeed in Southern Virginia,” said Governor Ralph Northam.
