Allen Edmonds Shoe Corporation will create up to 200 jobs in Port Washington, Wisconsin, with the help of a $1.5 million Community Development Block Grant Economic Development loan. The company will invest $3 million in the expansion.

"The success of Allen Edmonds Shoe Corporation is a real testament to Wisconsin's dedication to quality, and I am really proud the state is a strong partner in Allen Edmonds' efforts to expand its operations here in Wisconsin," said Governor Jim Doyle.
