Founded in 1945, Hayes & Stolz is a worldwide leader in the manufacturing of quality, reliable, and high-performance mixing and material handling equipment. After meeting with the city in February of 2016, the company decided to move its operations to Burleson. The EDC assisted in closing the gap on the move to help with Hayes and Stolz relocation decision.

Hayes and Stolz opened its new corporate headquarters at Highpoint Business Park in January of 2018. The new facility provides 150,000 square feet of much-needed manufacturing, warehouse and administration space to allow for ongoing expansions. The relocation brought with it over 100 jobs and the largest workforce in the business park, including administrative staff and sales staff as well as a warehouse operations division.

"From the very first conversation, and through every significant milestone along the way, the City of Burleson demonstrated a genuine interest in the successful relocation of Hayes & Stolz to Burleson," said BJ Masters, Owner of Hayes & Stolz. "I am convinced that the partnership formed between Hayes & Stolz and the City of Burleson will continue to be a valuable asset for propelling the growth of our company in the Burleson community.”
