The latest California company to move its headquarters to Texas is more than a little cheesy.
Cacique Foods has moved to Irving, in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, from Monrovia, California, the Dallas Morning News reported. It is the nation’s top producer of Mexican cheeses, and it also makes chorizo, crema, sopes, salsas, dips and drinks.
The company now resides on the third floor of Mandalay Tower I, at 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, in the master-planned development known as Irving’s “headquarters of headquarters.” The 12-story Class A office building was constructed in 1982 and renovated in 2007.
Cacique, whose products appear in 80 percent of grocery stores nationwide, also plans to open an $88 million dairy processing plant in Amarillo with the help of $1.13 million from the Texas Economic Development Corporation.
The move puts the 50-year-old family-owned operation in a central location and deepens its Texas connections. Cacique expects to grow its product offerings and expand into more stores with the Amarillo plant’s production.
Another Hispanic foods company, Ruiz Foods, moved its headquarters from California to the Dallas suburb of Frisco last year, the outlet reported. Ruiz, the maker of El Monterey frozen burritos, leased the third floor of the 4-story Class AA Hall Park at 3001 Dallas Parkway.
Los Colinas is also home to Wells Fargo’s $455 million regional campus, which is under construction. ExxonMobil left a hole in the submarket with its HQ relocation to Houston. But Capital Commercial Investments bought it in December and has hired a team of brokers to reel in one behemoth tenant that could transform the corporate campus.
