Hiland Dairy Foods Announces Plant Expansion

Hiland Dairy Foods Co. is announcing the expansion of its Tyler, TX, operations. The investment will add 90,000 sq. ft. to the existing facility.

The expansion will include state-of-the-art processing, filling, casing, palletizing, load-out, storage areas, and a new laboratory.

“This expansion is more than just growth in our physical footprint; it’s a commitment to the future of Tyler,” said Rick Beaman, president of Hiland Dairy. “We deeply appreciate the support we’ve received from the city, and we’re excited to continue providing good-paying, stable jobs for this community for years to come.”
With the addition, Hiland Dairy’s Tyler plant will be better equipped to meet the growing demand for dairy products across the state. “This investment is not just about expanding our capabilities — it's about ensuring that Tyler remains at the heart of Hiland Dairy’s regional operations. The project will provide numerous employment opportunities, contributing to the economic stability of Tyler and its surrounding areas,” said Barry Beaman, general manager of Hiland Dairy’s Tyler plant.

In 2017, the Tyler plant became part of the Hiland Dairy family. The expansion is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2026.
