Jake Sailer
Jake Sailer joined the family company, Sailer’s Food Market & Meat Processing Inc., to work with his father at 23 years old. Now the company is celebrating 95 years in business. It has gained acclaim since Sailer — now the company’s owner at age 46 — started submitting its products to competitions and racking up awards. In 2012, Sailer graduated as a member of the inaugural class of University of Wisconsin–Madison’s Master Meat Crafter Training Program.

Sailer continues to learn and uses his knowledge to instruct others in surrounding communities.
