About the Company

American Foods Group

Beef processing, packaging, distribution, private-label

AFG is a vertically integrated beef processor and distributor based in Green Bay, Wisconsin, handling cattle procurement, processing, and distribution for retail, foodservice, and international markets. It produces fresh beef, ground beef, case-ready items, sausages, steaks, corned beef, hot dogs, and Halal-certified products, with private labeling and its own distribution carrier, America’s Service Line, to support a farm-to-table supply chain. The company differentiates itself through complete supply-chain control, a long family-led history, multiple brand lines, and a practice of producing raw materials for other companies so it does not compete directly with some customers. Its goal is to provide a stable, broad meat supply with reliable service to major accounts while expanding export opportunities across its facilities in several states.
