LIMOUSIN
Wieczorek Limousin is a fourth generation operation located in southeastern South Dakota . Our main headquarters is located on the original tract of land homesteaded in 1882 by ancestors who immigrated here from Germany . While the original sod house no longer exists , the values that the first generation instilled still do – Faith , Family , and Work Ethic .
We have utilized artificial insemination since 1968 to advance the quality of our cow herd . In 1970 , we expanded our existing multi-breed herd with Limousin sires , such as Dandy , Éclair , and Prince Pompadour . The ease of calving coupled with the calf vigor and muscularity from those first matings sold us on the breed . From that point forward , we switched exclusively to Limousin on the entire herd and began to build the PB herd that currently grazes our pastures .
Our inaugural bull sale was hosted in 1981 . To that end , one of the things we are most proud of is to have several customers that bought bulls at that first sale that are still purchasing WZRK genetics today . Over the years , many of our loyal bull buyers have become life long friends , and that ’ s something that makes us truly feel blessed . We take the people side of the business very seriously and never for granted , that ’ s why making sure customers are satisfied has always been our number one goal .
