Step inside one of the most advanced—and human-centered—manufacturing facilities in America.

We toured DeGeest Corporation, a third-generation family business in Tea, South Dakota, that’s redefining what Made in America really looks like.

They’re the only U.S. dealer of Lesta robots They’ve built a full production research facility They’ve installed a cutting-edge automation track system for robotic painting And most importantly? They’ve created a culture where master welders and robots work side by side.

Written on the walls at DeGeest: “Rising tides lift all boats.” That’s not a slogan. It’s how they operate—with collaboration, craftsmanship, and a long-game mindset.

▶️ What you’ll see in this tour:

A spotless, highly efficient factory floor

Advanced automation that supports—not replaces—skilled people

A company deeply rooted in faith, family, fitness - and the future

If you think bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. means going back in time—this will change your mind.
