“We’re pleased to be able to relocate our offices within Dallas city limits,” said Dean Foods chairman and chief executive, Gregg Engles. “Many factors worked in our favour, including the real estate market, space availability and other economic elements. The city of Dallas is our home, and we’re pleased to remain here and continue our many civic and community partnerships.”
Founded in 1993 in Dallas, the country’s largest producer of milk and dairy products operated its corporate headquarters in various Dallas locations. Since the company’s inception, it has grown to 26,000 employees in more than 100 locations across the US. Dean Foods’ corporate headquarters now employs more than 450 employees.
The company’s growth has exceeded its current workspace. As part of the company’s strategic plan to invest for growth, it also needs a headquarters with the capacity to grow and change over time in response to the needs of the business.
“This is a very positive step in our company’s journey that demonstrates our stability, permanence and growth. I’m proud of our employees, who have worked hard to create continued business opportunities and success for our company,” added Engles.
