Bill Sommerfeldt had a dream. His dream was to, some day, have his own meat market. So after working in someone else's butcher shoes all his life, he rented a vacant building on the corner of county road C and highway 61. Angus Meat Market was born.
At 60 years of age, Bill worked as a one man shop for the first year. Two years later Bill had two full time and two part time employees. One of those part time helpers was Bill's 10 year old grandson Rick. Rick's father, Len, kept the books for his father-in-law, as he was accountant by trade. Angus Meat Market continued to grow when in 1969 Bill moved his shop to a new building just one block north, to its current location by 1973, father & son, Len & Rick Atzmiller joined Bill as full timers in the family business.
Len and Rick took the reigns when Bill retired in 1975. Since his fathers retirement in 1989, Rick has run the business just as his Grandfather would. With his sons Nick and Eric, and long time employees Tim & Shawn, Angus Meat Market is still an old fashioned meat market. Rick and his crew give personalized service and great products every day. Four generations strong, Angus Meat Market looks forward to serving you!
