Sibley, Iowa — Soon, the Papik name will be on more dealerships in Iowa than where they started — in Minnesota. And it will be the end of an era in Sibley. Papik Motors is buying Jeddeloh Ford.
Gary Papik bought his first dealership (in Luverne) from Warren Schoon several years ago and they built a large new sales, service, and parts building along I-90 in the late 1990s. They purchased Vander Lee Motors in Rock Rapids at the beginning of 2019. Jordan Papik tells us about the purchase of the Jeddeloh dealership in Sibley.
