South Dakota Company is the Oldest and is Still Running Today

Look's Meat Market opened their doors in 1883 and has since re-invented itself to be known as Look's Marketplace now located near 69th Street and Minnesota Avenue in Sioux Falls.

For this reason, Look's is the oldest company in South Dakota. And, one of the dozens that pre-date Statehood.

According to Zippia, Look's along with many companies in the United States, have defied the odds and have all been in operation for more than 100 years.
