Celebrating Our Heritage

The FSST portfolios are more than business endeavors; they are a celebration of the rich and enduring Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe heritage. Each portfolio is a testament to our tribe’s spirit of innovation, resilience, and unity, intertwining ancestral wisdom with modern opportunities. As we proudly carry forward our traditions through each venture, we invite you to become a part of this vibrant journey rooted in deep cultural pride.

Community Engagement

Our Tribe's Reservation geographically spans throughout rural Moody County, South Dakota in a checkerboard fashion; however, the Tribe also has historical connections with lands located all along the Big Sioux River and across Minnesota. These connections have resulted in an interwoven tribal community of tribal and non-tribal members, with strong held qualities of resilience, drive, tradition and pride. Our Tribe, its departments, programs and businesses all passionately lead, serve and consistently support, economically and through active participation, the community on and off the formal Reservation boundaries. This support from the Tribe and its entities help to sponsor individuals, teams, non-profits and many youth programs throughout the community. Our Tribe and our people once lost everything but over the course of the last 150 years, we have rebuilt a community for future generations that continues to grow across many disciplines and industries. As one of our Tribe's primary economic supporters, our company strives to maintain and further this mission, contributing to promote economic success and general welfare of our tribal community for future generations.
