The Reata BizBlog: Texas: Plano

Just when you think you live in the greatest place on earth, someone comes along to pop that bubble. I live in Plano, Texas and have my business based here. It's a great suburb of Dallas with 250,000 people so it's a viable city on it's own. We have great parks, recreation, demographics and progressive business climate. 

But some knucklehead had to do a survey on fast food. Who has time for such a thing? Okay, you may be asking who has time to blog about it. I take your point. 

Turns out that Plano residents eat more fast food than any other city in the country. How that was determined, I don't know. But here is a link to the article so you can do your own research. What's surprising is that Plano is not the fattest city in America. I guess that's because we work out too. Or maybe because we're running when we're eating that fast food.

It doesn't really matter, I guess. Maybe we're just doing our part to stimulate the economy while also stimulating our appetites as a bonus.

One of our clients is a French software engineering company that just opened an office in Plano, Texas - a suburb of Dallas.  We negotiated a sublease for them and were able to get full use of all furniture, cubes, phones, computers, copiers and even the server room equipment, all while also getting a huge discount off the market rental rate for the building.  Take a look at the article at the following link - http://www.ccbusinesspress.com/display.php?id=3936.
