ROSENBERG, Texas – Biotics Research Corp., a manufacturer of nutritional supplements, is building a new corporate headquarters, research center, warehouse, and distribution facility in the City of Rosenberg.
The new 87,569-square-foot building will be located in the Rosenberg Business Park, according to the Fort Bend Economic Development Council and the City of Rosenberg.
Situated about 20 miles southwest of downtown Houston, Fort Bend County describes itself as one of the most diverse counties in Texas and emphasizes its inclusive community character.
Scheduled for completion in 2023, the Biotics Research complex will preserve 160 existing jobs and is expected to create 25 additional positions over the next five years.
Biotics Research has operated in Rosenberg for nearly 25 years and will retain its current manufacturing building. The company’s substantial growth in recent years and the need to accommodate future expansion prompted the decision to add this new facility, which was designed by Powers Brown Architecture.
As one of the city’s largest employers, Biotics Research will be among the first companies to develop within the deed-restricted Rosenberg Business Park.
“Biotics Research is a valued member of the Rosenberg business community, and we are thrilled to work with them and congratulate them on their expansion to the 184-acre deed-restricted Rosenberg Business Park,” said Rosenberg Mayor Kevin Raines. “The Business Park was developed not only to attract new businesses to our city, but to retain and create opportunities for existing businesses such as Biotics Research.”
A family-owned enterprise, Biotics Research has grown steadily since its incorporation in 1976.
“Biotics Research and many of their employees have been long-time Fort Bend County residents,” said County Commissioner Vincent Morales, Jr. “This dynamic company started in Harris County over 45 years ago and relocated to Fort Bend County in 1985. They have experienced continuous growth, expanding the company’s product line and market presence globally. We are proud of Biotics Research’s success and we appreciate their ongoing investment in, and commitment to, our community.”
Covering more than 900 square miles and among the fastest-growing counties in the United States, Fort Bend County is projected to reach a population of 1 million within the next five years.
