MCALLEN, Texas - The new 125-acre McAllen South Industrial Park is not yet finished but already the owners have sold lots to companies from abroad.

The park, with a buildable area of about 1.8 million square feet, is being going up off Military Highway between 10th and 23rd streets in south McAllen.

“Already, we've got an Asian firm that is purchasing property. We've got a Mexican firm that's purchasing property,” said Michael Fallek, in an exclusive interview with the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service.

The Guardian interviewed Fallek at the end of a groundbreaking ceremony. From the podium, Fallek thanked several partners, giving special praise to McAllen Economic Development Corporation.

“MEDC has been instrumental in connecting us with potential users, buyers, interested parties. They have absolutely been a big part of what we've been doing here,” Fallek said.

He also thanked the McAllen city leadership, the McAllen Chamber of Commerce, Brandon Wallace of Alamo System Industries (ASI), and Octavio Cantu and Brian Godinez of ERO Architects. “Brandon’s team is out here doing all the all the dirt work and installing the utilities. ERO have done a lot of work on the master plan,” Fallek said.

Fallek said everyone is aware of the shortage of industrial warehouse space, logistics space, and manufacturing space in the city of McAllen.

“Thankfully, we're here. We're going to be building a number of facilities. You'll see that there is up to about 1.8 million square feet of buildable area that we can put in the park,” Fallek said.

“It's very large. We're very excited about everything that's going to go in here.”

Fallek said it is hard to overestimate the importance of what manufacturing and warehousing can do for the city of McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley.

“This is going to be a real difference maker for the city and for the region, with up to 1.5 to 1.8 million square feet in the park. This project will mean hundreds of millions of dollars in economic activity for the region. There will be hundreds of new jobs created. There will be new industries that will locate here in the park. It's going to make an enormous difference to the opportunities present here in McAllen and the Valley. We're incredibly excited.”
