Orscheln Farm and Home reopens in Sikeston

SIKESTON - Orscheln has returned to Sikeston.

The newest store has opened at 1401 East Malone. Although the address is the same, the building is being completely remodeled and refurbished. Customers will see a fresh, updated product offering including lawn and garden, farm supplies and livestock feed, animal health, pet food and supplies, hardware, plumbing, electrical, automotive, toys, housewares and clothing.

The first Orscheln store opened in 1960 in Sedalia, launching the Orscheln family into the retail business.

For the past two years, the company has been growing, opening new stores and relocating select existing stores. Including the new stores opened in the spring of 2006, the company now owns 133 stores located in 9 states consisting of Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas, Kentucky and Indiana.

All operations originate from the corporate offices in Moberly, which is also the home of their retail support center and one Orscheln Farm and Home store.

Orscheln remains a privately owned organization in its third generation as a business enterprise and has been serving Midwest communities for over 45 years with quality, convenience and extraordinary service.

The corporate philosophy promotes a commitment to keeping rural America alive, strong and growing. As a result, Orscheln stores continually strive to improve their product selection and services that meet the everyday needs and expectations of today's farm and suburban customers.
