About Zenner's
The year was 1927. The twenties were roaring along when eighteen-year old George Zenner Sr. opened Zenner's Market on Northeast Glisan at 53rd in Portland, Oregon. With his father on board, and decades of smoked meat and sausage making experience behind them, Zenner's Market began establishing a tradition of quality that our seasoned staff maintain and build upon to this day.
Today, from our current location on Northwest Kearney Street, Zenner's produces the finest sausages and smoked meats available. From traditional Frankfurters and Bratwurst, to Louisiana Red Hots, a wide variety of Chicken Sausages, Alder Smoked Hams and Bacon; in all Zenner's today produces over forty different products, as well as many custom recipes for restaurants and retail outlets. The Zenner's team carefully combines fresh spices and herbs and follows age-old traditions in curing, smoking and resting of the meats, bringing each variety to its absolute peak of flavor and texture before it's rushed to market.
90 years later, Zenner's is still family owned and continues to please crowds young and old throughout the Northwest.
