DeSmet to be home to new manufacturer



 A West Fargo, N.D.-based wire and cable harness manufacturer is expanding into South Dakota with a location in DeSmet.

     The South Dakota Governor's Office of Economic Development says Sheyenne Dakota Inc. is expected to create 30 jobs over the next three years.

     The company will use a building DeSmet constructed in 2009 to attract a new business and spur local economic development. It's expected to begin operations in DeSmet by early September.

     Gov. Dennis Daugaard says DeSmet was proactive in generating the opportunity for community growth.

     CEO Dave Ingalsbe says Sheyenne Dakota was looking for a small- to mid-size community that could offer a ready workforce.
