“This expansion is more than just growth in our physical footprint; it’s a commitment to the future of Tyler,” said Rick Beaman, president of Hiland Dairy. “We deeply appreciate the support we’ve received from the city, and we’re excited to continue providing good-paying, stable jobs for this community for years to come.”

With the addition, Hiland Dairy’s Tyler plant will be better equipped to meet the growing demand for high-quality dairy products across Texas. “This investment is not just about expanding our capabilities: it’s about ensuring that Tyler remains at the heart of Hiland Dairy’s regional operations. The project will provide numerous employment opportunities, contributing to the economic stability of Tyler and its surrounding areas,” said Barry Beaman, general manager of Hiland Dairy’s Tyler plant.

With its history dating back to 1927, the Tyler plant has been a cornerstone of the local community. In 2017, the plant became part of the Hiland Dairy family. Over the years, Hiland’s production facilities have ensured that our products reach Texans at the peak of freshness and quality.

The groundbreaking ceremony will take place on Sept. 24 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. City and company officials will be present, and the ceremony will begin at 11:30 a.m.

“This expansion is a testament to our commitment to the community and our dedication to maintaining the highest standards in dairy production,” Barry Beaman added. “We look forward to continuing our legacy of excellence with this new investment.”
