About Brakebush Brothers: Our story begins in transportation. In 1925, William and Otto Brakebush started the family business with one delivery truck, transporting local livestock and poultry to larger markets in Madison and Milwaukee, WI. After expanding into sugar and egg delivery, the brothers took the next logical step, dressing and freezing live poultry as a service to their customers.

 

Brakebush Irving (TX) uses state-of-the-art equipment like DSI water jet cutters for precision sizing and portioning of raw product. They keep our national accounts and other plants well-stocked. This has led to the need to acquire a cold storage facility close by in Grand Prairie, TX.
