Project Overview
South Fort Worth: Continental Tire is gearing a huge shift in the tire manufacturing industry with its new Hillwood-Project Road Trip. The company is spending $69 million to build a 752,000-square-foot industrial facility with about 7,500 square feet of office space. The project, which sits at 10101 Old Burleson Road, represents the first building within the broader Hillwood’s new 85-acre Risinger/35 Logistics Park – part of a larger platform that has been home to successes such as AllianceTexas.
Construction on the new facility began on August 28th 2024. And is scheduled for completion by January 30th, 2026. Upon completion, the new facility strategically positions Continental Tire in a vital logistics center and enhance the company’s ties to South Fort Worth community. With an investment already in place, expanding production footprint in the thriving industrial area such as this solidifies the Continental Tire’s presence and ensures future growth to meet market demands in the region.
The rapid industrial growth in South Fort Worth certainly presents both opportunities and challenges. As the area becomes a hotspot for large-scale logistics and distribution centers, your project will need to carve out its own niche while still complementing the broader development landscape.
With giants like DICK’s and Samsung moving in, there’s likely to be increased competition for skilled workers, materials, and infrastructure resources. You might face pressure to offer competitive amenities or cutting-edge features to stand out from these high-profile neighbors.
On the flip side, this surge in development could create a synergistic effect. The presence of major players often attracts smaller support businesses and improves overall infrastructure, potentially benefiting your project in the long run.
