Conagra to Close Sandwich Bros. Plant in Milwaukee

Three years after Conagra Brands Inc. acquired Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin, the company will close a plant on Milwaukee’s northwest side, terminating 190 jobs in the process.

Chicago-based Conagra bought the Sandwich Bros. business from Kangaroo Brands of Milwaukee in 2018 for USD87m. The Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin business produces frozen breakfast and entree flatbread sandwiches.

Conagra will discontinue production in the plant at 7620 N. 81st St. “to improve efficiencies and effectiveness within its supply chain network,” according to a layoff notice to the state of Wisconsin. The plant will close by April, the notice states.
