willie Joe's STORY

IN THE BEGINNING

  

Willie Joe’s Processing was dreamed up and started by Willie Joe Svetilk and wife Karen. Willie Joe worked for a small butcher shop growing up in High Hill, Texas, where he learned to cut meat and work on the kill floor. Over the years he developed great butchering skills and knowledge of the meat market business.


Fast forward many years -- Both Willie Joe and Karen continued working in the meat industry at a large food manufacturer/Smokehouse in Schulenburg, Texas. Around this time, Willie Joe saw an opportunity for a meat processor for the local farmers and rancher. Around 1980, he and Karen decided to build a small shop behind their house to kill and process beef and for customers, later processing deer. 


Doing this as a side business to their everyday jobs kept them very busy from 1980 to 2001 when they decided to build the shop that stands today. They turned in their notice at the big plant and Willie Joe’s Processing was up and running. 


Through the years business increased and the shop became well known and liked. Not only did they work hard for many years to produce an excellent product, but they put their kids to work, teaching them how to make a living and the importance of hard work . . . 

CHAPTER 2

In 2012, Willie Joe had decided he was ready to retire and approached Paddy Magliolo to see if he was interested in the processing plant. Somehow, Willie Joe had heard that Paddy had graduated from Texas A&M with an Animal Science degree and had interest in the meat business. 


After some long talks and negotiations, the two came to an agreement and the business changed hands in March of 2013. Paddy and he wife, Kaaren, have been owner/operators ever since, building on the great foundation established by Willie Joe and Karen. The business has been growing and expanding ever since.


We currently have about 20 employees and at Willie Joe’s we consider each employee a family member.  

CHAPTER 3

It became evident to owners Paddy and Kaaren that Willie Joe's was growing and in need of yet another expansion. In 2024, an opportunity presented itself in Yoakum, TX - a second storefront. Divine Intervention? Absolutely. 


Our Yoakum location is perched in a bustling location, ready to please with fresh beef, pork, chicken, quail, fish, ready to eats, ready to cook products, and a full-service deli. We are consistently turning our wheels on new, exciting products to offer. Deer processing is available year-round, with drop offs in all forms from whole deer to deboned. Processing products for DIY processors are also available year-round.


We are so excited to be a part of this wonderful community!
