Olympic Companies

"My career began when I started working at Olympic."

After 11 years in food service, Seth Weber made the move to the construction industry as the Warehouse Manager for Olympic Companies in Sioux Falls. "I've probably been here the least out of anybody in the company, if I had to guess. I started working in the shop in January of this year," he said.

Gerson Cortez has been with Olympic Companies SD for a year and seven months. He applied to be a carpenter when his cousin told him about the construction company. "He said he was working for a really good company where they only worked eight-hour days, and encouraged me to apply," said Cortez. He had already been working in the trade, on sheetrock projects for himself to working for other companies.

When Garrett Hodges' close extended family was moving to Sioux Falls from the Pacific Northwest, he knew his family of four was ready to make the move, too. This meant that his kids could continue to grow up with their cousins who'd lived just 5-10 miles from them since they were born. So last year, Hodges moved his family from Portland, Oregon, to Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
