Johnsonville produces over 70 different types of sausage products, including: brats, grillers, Italian sausage, smoked-cooked links, breakfast sausage in fully cooked and fresh varieties, chicken sausage, meatballs and summer sausage.[4]
[5]
In 2021, based on a survey of 15,000 U.S. shoppers, Johnsonville won a best new product award for its Sausage Strips, which look and cook like bacon but are actually made from sausage.[6]
Harvest Facilities
In 2014, Johnsonville had the most sow harvest capacity in the United States, with the facilities to harvest 3,400 pigs daily.[7]
Sponsorships
In 2017, Johnsonville became the title sponsor for the American Cornhole League.[8] Explaining why it sponsors cornhole, the company's director over strategic growth said the game is played, "where people enjoy our products--in backyards during barbecues and tailgate parties."[9]
Also in 2016 Johnsonville began sponsoring BaconFest, a fundraising event in Naples, Florida, hosted by the Kiwanis Club of Pelican Bay. The one-day event draws 7,000 people.[10]
