Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen that causes severe illness. Thus, ongoing efforts at real-time whole-genome sequencing are of utmost importance. However, it is also important that retrospective analyses that place these data into context be performed. Here, we present the genome sequence of strain HPB2088, which was collected in 1994.
