We look forward to meeting the growing demand for our handcrafted Klement’s sausage for years to come .” The major construction project has been backed by the mayor of Milwaukee, Tom Barrett, who said Klement’s had earned its reputation for producing products that were high quality. Meanwhile, the governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, also paid tribute to the expansion. “ Wisconsin is a top 10 state for manufacturing jobs since we took office, and it’s because great, long-time Wisconsin employers like Klement’s are committed to growing here in our state ,” said Walker. “ This expansion is outstanding news, and we look forward to Klement’s continued investment in Wisconsin .” Klement Sausage Company was established in 1956 by brothers, John, George, and Ron Klement.
