Johnsonville closing plant in Sheboygan Falls; 400 jobs in jeopardy

Johnsonville is closing one of its plants in Sheboygan County by the end of 2024 following the acquisition of its co-packer, Salm Partners, the company shared with TMJ4 News on Wednesday.

The Meadowside plant in Sheboygan Falls will close by the end of this year. Its Countryside and Riverside manufacturing facilities will remain fully operational.

The company says all 390 Meadowside members will have a position through at least the end of June.

The company said it anticipates "some workforce adjustments as the organization transitions a portion of its ready-to-eat sausage production to Salm throughout 2024."
