Miami Beef, a US-based company, has announced its acquisition of local peer Hofmann Sausage, a sausage and hot dog brand in Syracuse, New York. “The meat company’s aim is to expand its product range through the addition of hot dogs and sausages,” said CEO Robert Young.
The company plans to invest in the growth of Hofmann Sausage’s plants and is also looking towards further acquisitions. Young stated, “We are thrilled to welcome Hofmann Sausage to the Miami Beef family. Hofmann has a meaningful heritage and deep connection to its loyal customers, employees, and community, which we plan to continue serving through investment in its facilities in Syracuse.”
Miami Beef, which manufactures chicken and beef patties, ground meat, steak, and various other meat-based products, is present in the retail market throughout the US and serves the foodservice channel, including schools, universities, healthcare, and the military. The company, which manufactures in Florida and New York, is also capable of producing 50 tons of meat per eight-hour shift.
The acquisition comes as Miami Beef aims to offer its customers the full grilling experience, adding hot dogs and sausages to its high-quality hamburger offerings. The company’s plan is to turbo-charge the growth of Hofmann’s footprint throughout the country and continue to look for complementary brands to acquire.
Founded in 1879, Hofmann is a sausage and hot dog brand focused on sales in the central New York area. Its portfolio includes beef and pork frankfurters, smoked sausage, bratwursts, beef jerky, and condiments.
This acquisition reflects a strategic move by Miami Beef to expand its product range and reach a wider customer base. It’s a noteworthy development in the food and beverage industry, indicative of consumer trends favoring diverse and high-quality meat-based products. The company’s continued focus on strategic acquisitions is likely to position it as a prominent player in the food and drink business.
