About

In 1916, Anton Dewig started what is today Dewig Bros. Packing Co., Inc. Later Anton was joined by his two brothers, Joe and John Dewig. In those days the only tools that the employees of Dewigs used to process meat were their knives. From these humble beginnings the Dewig family has advanced their company to be one of the most successful meat packing plants in Indiana. The family had actually been involved in the meat business before the Haubstadt, Indiana plant was opened. John Dewig’s father had been a road butcher who went farm to farm in the area earlier in this century. ohn’s sons, Tom and Bill, bought the business from their uncles, Anton and Joe in 1962. Since then the plant has continued to evolve utilizing the latest technology and processes in the business. Since Bill Dewig’s retirement in 1990, the business has been owned and operated by Bill’s brother Tom and wife Janet, their son Dean and wife Karen, and daughter Darla and husband Aaron. While the second and third generation are continuing the strong family tradition, the fourth generation is starting to be actively involved in the business as well. Dean and Karen’s son Darell Austin now works full time and is assuming some of the management responsibilities. Their daughter Sarah Jade attends college and works part-time along side her mother, aunt and grandmother learning the family business. The youngest grandchildren, Jesse Logan (14), Jarrett Anthony (14), and twin girls, Addison Mae and Heidi Rae (8) are also common faces around Dewig Meats. Mission Statement: Dewig Meats’ goal is to provide superior products and quality processed meats to the food service industry and to provide specialized and custom produced meat products for all ethnic and geographical needs. Company Philosophy: Dewig Meats is an established company basing growth on the manufacturing and sale of quality meat products.
