Roach Manufacturing Corporation has Big Plans for Hometown
February 20, 2023 by Haag Brown in Press Releases

Trumann, Ark., FEB 20, 2023 – Haag Brown Commercial Real Estate & Development is excited to announce a partnership with Roach Manufacturing Corporation that will create the first lifestyle-focused, master-planned, mixed-use development in Trumann, Arkansas.

The initial installment of Steel Creek Development will feature a first-class warehouse and distribution center for Roach Manufacturing, the anchor for the project. Plans are in place for the development to host Class A office and retail space, restaurant outparcels, themed single-family housing, amenity-rich multi-family housing, and a potential event venue. A hotel-like development is being designed to encompass a small lake.

With headquarters stationed in Trumann, Arkansas, Roach Manufacturing Corporation, also known as Roach Conveyors is assured the Steel Creek Development will dramatically accelerate the growth and advancement of the city.

We purchased land where we intend to build a distribution center for Roach Manufacturing, but we had a vision for more than just a warehouse. We really want to help make these amenities available to our community. We are excited to see this project come to life.
Mike Roach, Sr.

President & CEO, Roach Manufacturing Corporation

Strategically located on Industrial Park Access Road, Steel Creek Development sits north of the Wal-Mart Supercenter and fronts I-555, providing the project substantial interstate visibility and easy connectivity to surrounding industries within the state and further.

Through the implementation of walking trails and biking paths across the 100+ acres, Haag Brown intends to introduce lifestyle flexibility never seen in this region. The Sunken Land Trail, a network of trails connecting every lot in this mixed-use development, will be incorporated with water retention and drainage.

Our ultimate goal is to connect this trail network to the Sunken Lands River Trail. The trail would pass by the most significant sites in the city, such as the Trumann High School, Elementary, and Pre-K schools, Arkansas State Technical Center, the old Singer community center, and downtown.
Joshua Brown

Principal, Haag Brown Development

The entire development will be master planned by Ecological Design Group, one of the state’s most environmentally conscious planners.

Steel Creek was chosen as the development’s name to pay homage to the city’s heritage. Steel was picked for its significance in the industrial automation industry. Creek was chosen because water and drainage features will be key components within each phase of the project.

It is always rewarding to help others meet needs and solve problems. Not only does this project and group want to accomplish business, but `{`Roach Conveyors`}` are seeking to provide a vision and emphasis on the quality of life aspect that is often neglected. This project is special.
Jeff Armstrong

Agent, Haag Brown Industrial

Roach Manufacturing serves as Trumann’s major economic and employment pillar. Established in 1953 by Gay Roach, Sr., Roach Manufacturing Corporation has been innovating material handling systems for 70 years. A vision that was formulated in a World War II POW camp in Marked Tree as a way to transport cotton bales has slowly transformed into a world-class material handling systems corporation.

The Roach family has been diligently influential in planning the project with Haag Brown Industrial Agent Jeff Armstrong and Haag Brown Development Principal Joshua Brown.

My roots were established in Poinsett County. I am humbled, honored, and eager to be involved in a project that has the potential to reimagine the way Trumann lives, works, and plays. Walking to the coffee shop, taking the golf cart to dinner, biking with your daughter to soccer practice, or walking with the family to the local farmer’s market on the weekend is a life we envision in Nashville, Austin, and other large, wealthier cities. We feel there is a path to creating this lifestyle with the development of Steel Creek and the Sunken Lands Trail System. When completed, the project would promote active living, improve happiness and mental health, foster social interaction, reduce crime, and increase property values. The overall image of Trumann has the potential for positive change. The value to the community is so great!
Joshua Brown

Principal, Haag Brown Development

Haag Brown would like to thank all who have been involved in engineering this significant project. This team of talented individuals has the potential to completely transform the market and trends in Trumann, Arkansas, as well as a significant chunk of Poinsett County and surrounding areas.

The city’s leadership and foresight quite literally laid the groundwork to enable this type of development. Without the infrastructure upgrades made by the city of Trumann over the past several years, this project couldn’t happen anytime soon.
Jeff Armstrong

Agent, Haag Brown Industrial

The Roach Manufacturing Corporation distribution facility will be built as part of the project’s first phase, which is scheduled to start soon, along with a redesign of the water infrastructure on the property.

“Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in thi “Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way.

When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying,

“Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”

Haag Brown Industrial Facility :: SOLD 💲 Tate Haag Brown Industrial Facility :: SOLD 💲

Tate Industries - the world leader in advanced raised access flooring, airflow optimization, and infrastructure systems for commercial and data center environments - has now CLOSED on the 420,000 SF industrial facility in Pocahontas, AR! 🤩

This facility, formerly the Waterloo building, was listed by Haag Brown Commercial's Industrial Division, and in just 6 months, the deal was under contract. 📜

“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 of Haag Brown Commercial

This isn't just a transaction; it's a GAME-CHANGER for the city of Pocahontas. With Tate Industries on board, the community gains exciting opportunities, new partnerships, and a fresh vision for growth. 📈

Haag Brown Commercial congratulates the city on this incredible achievement and is proud to have played a role in making it happen! 🙌
