According to some people familiar with Toyota, the US sales headquarters located in southern California is ready to be moved to Dallas, thus bringing more operations close together for better communication and management.
The two persons said details about the move were shared Friday with seniot Toyota executives, with employees receiving an email Sunday informing them about a Monday morning webcast for further details.
The new location in Dalas’ suburbs will bring together at least three subsidiaries according to what people said, including Toyota Financial Services, Toyota Engineering, Toyota Motor Sales and Manufacturing North America which will bring operations like sales, service, advertising, marketing, manufacturing and quality under one roof.
Moving after 57 years of operations in Torrence, the shifting will involve around 5,000 employees, making for Texas to be regarded as one of Toyota’s biggest operations state in the US.
The relocation will join the Toyota’s other large manufacturing plant in Texas, where the Tundra and Tacoma pick-up trucks are currently made. The facility has been inaugurated in 2003 and house around 1,800 employees.
