[Pocahontas, Ark., August 29, 2024] — Haag Brown Commercial’s Industrial Division is thrilled to announce that a

420,000 square foot industrial facility in Pocahontas, Arkansas, is pending sale! Tate Industries, a leader in the

design and production of advanced raised access flooring, airflow optimization, and infrastructure systems for

commercial and data center environments, is set to occupy the facility.

The 420,000 square foot facility sits on 37 acres on Hwy 304, approximately 1/2 Mile east of Hwy 67 and two miles

west of the future I-57. The quantity of thriving industrial activity in the surrounding area, coupled with the

convenience and accessibility of the site’s location, presents a range of support for healthy and sustainable facility

operations for the company.

I am proud of our Industrial division, but Jeff Armstrong specifically. He was able to be involved with many talented and motivated people including the mayor, city council, AEDC, etc… Getting a deal of this magnitude done so quickly is rare and it wouldn’t have happened without a lot of people who took it personally. When we listed the building in February, this facility was the largest industrial manufacturing building available in the state of Arkansas and six months later it was pending. — Joshua Brown, Co-Founder, Haag Brown Commercial

Initially settled in the 19th century as a hub for lumber production, Pocahontas has gradually diversified beyond

timber to include manufacturing, agriculture, poultry processing, and tourism. The city’s manufacturing sector has

continued flourishing, with industries ranging from automotive parts to textiles.

The arrival of Tate Industries marks a major milestone for the Pocahontas community as it recognizes the city's

growing prominence in the region's industrial landscape and will create over 140 new jobs to boost the local

economy.

Tate plans to use the property to house its innovative operations focused on fabricating steel frames for data

centers, as well as partner with the adjacent Black River Technical College to underscore its commitment to

fostering local talent and innovation.

The Arkansas Economic Development Commission (AEDC), Northeast Arkansas Regional Intermodal Authority, and

the City of Pocahontas were instrumental in securing this pivotal agreement, finalized in August 2024. The deal is

expected to close in Q4 of this year and Tate plans to be fully operational by the second half of 2025.
