Fort Pierre
Fort Pierre is the county seat of Stanley County in central South Dakota on the west bank of the Missouri River directly across from Pierre and the state capital, at the meeting of Lake Oahe and Lake Sharpe, a historic fur-trade town and the site of the Verendrye Plate with deep rodeo and ranch heritage. Its economy spans ranching, agriculture, river recreation and tourism, retail, trades, and the small businesses serving the surrounding ranches and the Pierre metro across the river. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for Fort Pierre's ranching, agriculture, recreation, retail, and trades businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
