California company Graze will open its new corporate headquarters in Plano in April, it announced on Friday.
“The City of Plano and its surrounding area will provide the perfect base for Graze to develop additional innovative solutions for the landscaping industry and grow our position in the marketplace,” CEO Logan Fahey said in a press release. “Since July 2023, Graze’s autonomous electric mowers have been used in a pilot landscaping maintenance program at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, and we look forward to expanding our business as we provide eco-friendly landscaping solutions for customers throughout Texas and beyond.”
Graze, according to the release, is preparing to launch its commercial-grade robotic lawnmower, with a demonstration scheduled for Wednesday at Plano’s High Point Park with city officials.
“Plano’s robust infrastructure, thriving tech community, and strategic location provide Graze with an ideal environment to accelerate its vision of creating smarter, more efficient outdoor maintenance solutions,” Mayor John B. Muns said. “The city’s commitment to innovation and accessibility makes it a fitting choice for a company dedicated to pushing the boundaries of robotics and automation. We are thrilled to welcome Graze, Inc. to Plano and look forward to celebrating many successes together.”
Graze officials said the decision to move to Plano will place the company “at the forefront of the growing ecosystem of cutting-edge technology companies contributing to the region’s economic and technological growth.”
The company plans to open its Plano headquarters at Plano’s Legacy business park.
The city is home to many large corporations, including Fannie Mae, Yum! Brands, Cinemark Holdings, Bank of America, Frito-Lay, Capital One, Toyota Motor North America, PepsiCo, Boeing Global Services, Argon Medical Devices, JP Morgan Chase, JC Penney, FedEx Office, and the At Home Group.
