Relocation Resources

Toyota is relocating its US operations to Plano, TX. And it won’t be a symbolic ‘all ranch and no cattle’ gesture – the Japanese automaker, whose headquarters have been in California since 1957, has decided to base nearly all of its operations in the Lone Star State, including much of its engineering, finance and sales and marketing teams.

Boston-based Liberty Mutual Insurance plans to have 5,000 employees working on a new campus in Plano by the end of 2017. “It’s all part of our strategy to attract and obtain top talent,” Liberty Mutual vice president John Cusolito said. “We already have a strong and significant presence in Texas and are impressed with the workforce in the state.”

State Farm, a major insurance company, is building transit-oriented regional hubs in three cities, including a massive development in Richardson, TX, with easy access to public transportation. This strategic move aims to attract and retain talent seeking transit-connected locations.

FedEx Office and Print Services, the Dallas-based company that runs print shops across the country, is moving its corporate headquarters to Plano. The move will consolidate up to 1,224 workers who office at the Galleria in Dallas and in a separate office in Plano. The company will occupy office space near the intersection of Legacy Drive and Headquarters Drive on the west side of the city. The building in Plano is designed to help the headquarters employees, support customers and employees in the field. It has a mock store, lab space to test equipment used in production and the field, as well as a cafeteria, gym, huddle centers, a call center and national dispatch center and training spaces designed specifically for FedEx Office’s needs. “It’s all about bringing our team members together under the same roof. There’s lots of opportunity to consolidate and lots of opportunity to create an environment that is conducive to what we do to support our team members and customers.
