Century-Old Delano Meat Market Closes | Minneapolis News

After 115 years, Delano’s beloved Rieder Meat Market is closing its doors for good—just before the Fourth of July festivities. The family-run business, which opened in 1911 (the year before the Titanic sank), is shutting down not because it’s failing, but because the workload is unsustainable: five people now handle what once required fifty, working seven days a week. Despite booming business and deep community ties, the owners are ready to retire. Locals are heartbroken, praising the quality and personal touch of the family-run shop. As the town celebrates, the market’s closure marks the end of an era—a poignant reminder of how hard it is to keep small, historic businesses alive, even when they’re cherished.
