Village PieMaker Moves All Operations to Omaha, Closes Eustis Shop

Village PieMaker (https://www.villagepiemaker.com/), which was opened by Judith Larsen in 2002 in Eustis, NE, and since acquired by Joe Ricketts, father of Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts, announced on July 22 that the original production center would close and all operations would move to Omaha. The business built a state-of-the-art facility at 13306 Portal Dr. a couple of years ago and, despite efforts to upgrade the Eustis plant to keep up with customer demand, recently made the decision to streamline operations and consolidate production at the Omaha facility.

“While my decision to close the Eustis facility was not an easy one, I believe it positions Village PieMaker for long-term success—success that will mean good jobs for more people as more and more households around the country are introduced to our wonderful, Nebraska-made pies,” said Ricketts.
