Houston-based Bel Furniture will open two adjacent buildings, a 74,793-square-foot showroom and a 340,503-square-foot distribution center in Katy, according to a Transwestern representative.
Transwestern is a Texas-based real estate firm specializing in collaborative entrepreneurship, according to a press release. In 2014, the business purchased 75 acres of land at West Ten Business Park located on I-10 and Cane Island Parkway, according to the release.
“The completion of Cane Island Parkway provides West Ten users immediate access directly from Interstate 10,” said Pete Johnston, senior vice president of Transwestern Development Co., in a statement.
Jamal Mollai, owner and founder of Bel Furniture, said the new location will help the company’s reach.
“We have been looking for an opportunity to open a large retail and distribution operation in west Houston to serve our expanding customer base, and West Ten was an ideal fit for us based on the quality of the new buildings, strategic location, visibility and access to Interstate 10,” he said.
