TOYOTA BRINGING JOBS TO CENTRAL TEXAS!

Toyota Tacoma

TOYOTA HAULING IN HUNDREDS OF JOBS SAN ANTONIO (San Antonio Express-News) – Toyota Motor Corp. has confirmed plans to move Tacoma pickup production from a plant in Northern California to its San Antonio manufacturing facility by next summer.

The move is expected to add as many as 1,100 new jobs to the facility over time. Toyota will stop making vehicles at the California plant in March. San Antonio and Bexar County officials estimate the local Toyota plant — which currently builds only Tundras — will crank out 100,000 Tacomas annually following a $100 million retooling of the facility.

The great thing about the San Antonio move is a boost in jobs for the area and of course the employees will need housing!  Incoming Toyota employees will have options regarding housing that include not only the San Antonio metro area, but surrounding rural areas as well. 

This is good news for the economic outlook of Central Texas from an employment, manufacturing and housing perspective.  Stay tuned for news of the Toyota manufacturing influx that appears to be in the future for the Alamo City and surrounding area!

Just another example of how screwed up California is and how much better the business climate inTexas is.

Jeani this is definitely a shot in the arm for San Antonio. When we hear jobs coming it means expansion, and that is good, very good for the entire community in and around San Antonio.
