From humble beginnings rooted in neighborly support in the harsh landscapes of South Dakota, Pioneer Bank & Trust has grown into a cornerstone of financial well-being across the region, including Rapid City. Founded on the principles of hard work, fairness, and community spirit by brothers F.M. and H.W. Clarkson, Pioneer Bank & Trust’s journey began in 1913 in Buffalo, SD. This commitment to community and relationship-based banking continues to thrive at our Rapid City location, offering a blend of traditional values and modern financial solutions.
The expansion of Pioneer Bank & Trust reflects a dedication to serving the evolving needs of South Dakota. After establishing a firm foundation in Buffalo and expanding to Belle Fourche in 1937, the vision grew. Recognizing the need for reliable and community-focused banking in larger regional centers, Pioneer Bank & Trust extended its reach to Spearfish and then strategically to Rapid City. This growth culminated in the formal naming of Pioneer Bank & Trust in 1986, signifying its expanded regional presence while holding onto its pioneering spirit. Further demonstrating its commitment to accessibility, Pioneer Bank & Trust added locations in Sturgis and centralized its administrative and technological operations in Spearfish to enhance service delivery across all branches, including Rapid City.
