De Pere, WI is located just south of Green Bay with a population of 25,348 in 2023. De Pere stands out as a gem. It is a blend of suburban serenity, urban amenities, arts center, and an abundance of sport fishing, outdoor activities, and the Green Bay Packers!
In 1850’s, the De Pere Dam’s powered the three sawmills, and the vast forests were processed into lumber, pulp, and paper. De Pere was part of the creation of the Paper Valley with many Pulp and Paper Mills on the Fox River. Wisconsin became the largest paper producing state in the United States and the World. Today, a number of the Paper and Pulp Mills have shutdown. However, we still have a number of major players still on the Fox River!
De Pere has evolved as a major player in the United States and the world with their Packaging, Printing, Plastics, Nonwovens, Converting, and Equipment Manufacturing. De Pere has about forty companies in the 5P & Converting Industries located in De Pere. The city has seen unbelievable growth in these industries. We have seen the new industrial park south of the city continually attracting new businesses and the current business is expanding. At the present time, De Pere has a new highway exchange south of the city under construction to accommodate all the growth of the business community. The future is very bright for this 5P and Converting Powerhouse!
