Abstract

We report here the draft genome sequence of a Listeria monocytogenes strain, core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) complex type 2521 (CT2521), isolated from ready-to-eat meat sausage related to a protracted and supraregional listeriosis outbreak (Sigma1) in Germany from 2014 to 2019.
