Kelly-Moore Paints Relocates-Plans Irving, Texas, Headquarters

04/28/2023
Kelly-Moore Paints, a leading manufacturer and retailer of premium paints and coatings in the U.S., will relocate its headquarters from Northern California to Irving, Texas.

The company will occupy 15,000-square-feet of Class A office space at 500 E. John Carpenter Freeway.

“We are excited to join the Irving-Las Colinas community and to offer our employees a great quality of life in a vibrant city,” said Kelly-Moore CEO Charles Gassenheimer. “Since centralizing our multiple manufacturing facilities in Hurst, Kelly-Moore has enjoyed all that the North Texas community offers, and we look forward to increasing our engagement with the local community. I want to express my gratitude to the City of Irving, to Koa Partners and to the Greater Irving-Las Colinas Chamber for their support of our future in Irving-Las Colinas. The Hurst Manufacturing facility is the engine of our company. Locating our corporate headquarters nearby enables even better production and innovation. The combination of our 157 retail stores in Northern California and the Southwest, aligned with excellence in manufacturing and distribution out of this centralized Texas base, is a formula for Kelly-Moore’s ongoing national success.”

To support the project the Irving City Council voted to approve $75,000 in economic incentives.

“Kelly-Moore’s decision to move its corporate headquarters to Irving-Las Colinas is a testament to our business-friendly community that also offers a high-quality lifestyle for all of its team members,” noted Beth A. Bowman, President & CEO of the Greater Irving-Las Colinas Chamber and Irving Economic Development Partnership. “We are excited to welcome the Kelly-Moore team home to Irving-Las Colinas, and we are focused on supporting them in their move to our city. We thank Kelly-Moore, the City of Irving and Koa Partners for their dedication to our community’s ongoing economic success.”

Kelly-Moore Paints is an American paint manufacturer with 157 stores located in California, Texas, Oklahoma, and Nevada. The company was acquired in 2022 by an affiliate of Flacks Group, a global investment firm.
