The Fort Smith Regional Chamber, City of Fort Smith and the Fort Chaffee Redevelopment Authority worked together to secure this business for the River Valley. “Phoenix Metals decision to locate its processing center and warehouse operation in Fort Smith is a testament of our commitment to recruit high-tech businesses to this region. A Fortune 500 company of this quality locating its operation in Fort Smith is a win for both company and community.” said Tim Allen, President of the Fort Smith Regional Chamber of Commerce.
Mayor Sandy Sanders commented, “We’re proud to add Phoenix Metals to the long list of outstanding businesses located in Fort Smith. The quality of our workforce, our low cost of doing business and the region’s cooperative attitude helped us land this nationally-known company in western Arkansas.”

In addition to the capital investment and job creation, it’s another statement by a national company that Chaffee Crossing, Fort Smith and the region is the place to expand and do business.
