Vienna Beef Revenue and Competitors

Vienna Beef was founded in 1893 when Austria-Hungarian immigrants Emil Reichel and Sam Ladany introduced their family frankfurter recipe to their fellow Chicagoans at the legendary Columbian Exposition. The hot dog was a hit, and Vienna Beef was born. More than 100 years later, we¹re still making our sausages the old-fashioned way, with pure domestic beef and our original recipe, made to the highest of quality standards and hickory-smoked for authentic flavor. Today, Vienna Beef today is a whole lot more than hot dogs. Still headquartered in Chicago, we manufacture and distribute a wide variety of foods, from our flagship sausages and deli meats to soups, chilis, entrees, condiments, desserts and Kosher specialties. Yet no matter what we're cooking up, we adhere to the same standards that have made us the favorite of hot dog afficionados from Chicago to Europe and beyond. We choose natural ingredients because we believe they really matter when it comes to taste-real cream for our soups, our own meats for our chilis, harvest-fresh vegetables in our entrees and condiments. And we pay just as much attention to the preparation. Most of our products are cooked in small batches, and our food safety process is state-of-the-art. You'll find our products at supermarkets, quick-serve restaurants, hot dog stands, sports arenas and entertainment venues across the United States and around the world. We even ship our gifts directly to dog devotees and other food fans wherever they may live.
