"The Best Little Meat Market in Texas"
Our Story
City Market was founded in 1943 by my grandfather Rudy Smrkovsky and his brother Tony Smrkovsky. They purchased an existing meat market from another Schulenburg family and began operating under the name City Market. They would process people’s livestock at their slaughter facility and deliver the meat back to them, cut to their specifications and wrapped. In the late 1970s Rudy built a new retail market, at our current location, to be closer to the Interstate. They continued to process beef and pork for individuals, but were also able to offer retail cuts to families who did not raise livestock. These animals were raised by Rudy and Tony and offered to customers at their new retail location. My father Roy Smrkovsky took over ownership of City Market in 1982. He began wholesaling the various sausage products to other businesses thus charting a new course for the future of City Market. In the early 1990s Roy built the first dedicated sausage processing room where they could focus on stuffing, smoking, and packaging our “Schulenburg Sausage” under State Inspection. Over the years, our processing plant has undergone 3 expansions, to keep up with the wholesale demand. I came on board in 2014 after my wife Bethany and I moved back home to Schulenburg from Cypress, TX to take over the family business. - Lukas Smrkovsky
