Rosebud Economic Development Corporation

The Rosebud Economic Development Corporation (REDCO) is revitalizing the economy of the Sicangu Lakota Oyate. As the economic development arm of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe, we create Lakota-aligned enterprises and develop the leadership and workforce to run them.

Examples include the Wolakota Buffalo Range — a bison restoration project which is now home to the largest Native-managed herd in the world — and Keya Wakpala Woicageyapi — a 600-acre mixed use development that reimagines how our community lives, works, and plays.

Through efforts like this, we provide workforce pathways and human development opportunities. Over the past six years, REDCO’s ecosystem has created 60 jobs, offering employment that strengthens families by providing economic stability and self-sufficiency. We run training programs aimed at young people and emerging professionals, and also offer a paid language and cultural learning program.
