The Plano City Council voted on July 27 to approve a $500,000 incentive package for Daisy Brand LLC, a food manufacturer recognized for its sour cream and cottage cheese products. The financial support is designed to facilitate the company's relocation of its corporate headquarters to a new facility located at 5850 Granite Parkway.
The approved package requires the company to meet specific performance benchmarks to receive the funds. According to city documents, Daisy Brand must invest a minimum of $10 million in property improvements by December 31, 2027, to qualify for the incentive.
Founded in 1917, the company currently maintains its headquarters at 12750 Merit Drive in north Dallas. A successful move to Plano would represent another significant corporate shift from Dallas to the neighboring city. This development follows AT&T Inc.'s decision earlier this year to depart its longtime location at Whitacre Tower in favor of a new billion-dollar headquarters situated on the former Electronic Data Systems campus.
Daisy Brand did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding the council's decision. However, the company previously outlined expansion plans for the Dallas-Fort Worth area last year. Those plans included the renovation of an existing 27,000-square-foot warehouse and the construction of a new two-story innovation center spanning approximately 29,000 square feet at 2025 Wall St. in Garland.
