Buddig Tour
Award winning Buddig Family provide a tour of their operations in Montgomery with the Village and the MEDC.
It is always exciting to see a company in your community and what they do, the products they make and the process. Recently, the MEDC set up a tour of the Buddig Plant in Montgomery. It has been an exciting transformation to see the building grow from a small family business like Gusto Packing, then replaced and sold to Butterball and now to be back to a family run business like Carl Buddig who has been established since 1943. In business over 76 years Carl Buddig & Company has been a great addition to our Montgomery Family. Thank you for your investment and contribution to our community. We are proud to have you here!
