The John Paul Mitchell Systems headquarters and product distribution center will be coming to a small Texas town.
WILMER, Texas — California-based John Paul Mitchell Systems (JPMS) – the parent company for Paul Mitchell, Tea Tree, and Neuro – is expanding to North Texas with a new corporate headquarters and product distribution center in southern Dallas County, according to a press release from Gov. Greg Abbott’s office.
JPMS is one of the world’s leading professional hair care brands, distributing its products to over 30 countries. This project will create 80 new jobs and more than $12 million in capital investment, according to Abbott’s office. A Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF) grant of $654,000 has been extended to JPMS, and the company has been offered an $8,000 Veteran Created Job Bonus.
“Texas is the headquarters of headquarters,” said Gov. Abbott. “This $12 million investment by John Paul Mitchell Systems to expand their corporate headquarters to Texas and establish a new global product distribution center in Wilmer will create 80 new good-paying jobs for hardworking Texans. With our skilled and growing workforce, leading position in U.S. and global markets, and the strongest pro-growth economic policies in America, we will continue to attract more headquarters and create more jobs across our great state.”
The corporate headquarters for JPMS will be located in Wilmer, a small Texas town of 6,385 in southern Dallas County.
“The City of Wilmer is proud to welcome John Paul Mitchell Systems to our growing business community,” said Wilmer Mayor Sheila Petta. “This investment brings not only new jobs and economic development but also increased visibility to Wilmer as a destination for major industry. We are excited about the opportunities this partnership creates for our residents and look forward to the positive impact it will have on our local economy and future growth.”
John Paul Mitchell Systems co-founder John Paul DeJoria, who has been a resident of Austin for 25 years, thanked Abbott for their “warm welcome and support.”
“I know this initiative plays a key role in encouraging businesses like ours to invest in the local economy,” DeJoria said.
