Listeria monocytogenes is notorious for persistence in food facilities. Phages can significantly impact the ecology of Listeria , but there is a dearth of genome sequence data for Listeria phages from food processing ecosystems. We report the genome sequences of two Listeria phages from turkey processing facilities in the USA.
