“We will attract both local and tourist traffic, and more importantly, create jobs and better employment access and opportunity for our military veterans in Chicago,” project leaders said in a presentation. The project will also have stores, a restaurant and a tavern, and create 125 construction and 50 permanent jobs to the community, according to city officials.Ĭup O’ Joe leaders previously said they will partner with Rags of Honor, a nonprofit screenprinting facility, to employ veterans at the microbrewery and coffee roaster. It’s being partially funded by the city’s Neighborhood Opportunity Fund, which is providing $2 million and tax credits to build Veteran Roasters. The project will need zoning approval and City Council backing before it can move forward.
