Detroit's Corridor Sausage Co. Signs For New Home In Eastern Market

The Corridor Sausage Co. has a new home in Eastern Market, signing a lease for its first production facility that is expected to accommodate exponential growth for the company.

The 3-year-old gourmet sausage-making firm plans to move into 1801 Division St. next month. The 2-story building's 8,500 square feet of commercial will provide plenty of space for new equipment that will allow the company to quintuple its production within the next year.

"This is the nicest building we have seen," says Will Branch, co-owner of the Corridor Sausage Co. "It's been owned by one family since the 1970s, when they ran Greenbriar Foods."

Branch started the Corridor Sausage Co. with Zach Klein while the two were working as chefs at a restaurant in Midtown. Sausage making started as a passion project for them. They made small batches at home for family and friends at first, working on recipes. That grew to selling them at local farmer's markets in recent years and to fellow chefs.
