Sigfried Frankenthal founded Packerland Packing in Green Bay, Wisconsin in 1960 and proceeded to built one of the largest meat packing operations in the Midwest. Wanting to ensure total control over his product, Frankenthal created his own trucking company called Packerland Transport, which built up a sizable refrigerated fleet to move boxed beef products nationwide. Packerland Packing Company was purchased by an investor group in 1994, which drastically expanded the reach of Packerland’s products, with market expansions both domestically and worldwide.
