February 21, 2017 // Franchising.com // WACO, Texas – Dwyer Group, Inc., one of the world’s largest franchising companies of trade service brands, recently broke ground on a new three-story, 18,225 square-foot building at 317 Bosque Blvd, adjacent to the company headquarters. The new building will house the company’s executive offices, marketing and accounting departments and ProTradeNet division, bringing the entire Dwyer Group corporate team to one location. Once completed, Dwyer Group’s campus will have more than 100,000 square feet of building space and nearly 14 acres of land.

“We celebrated a record year of global growth in 2016 and expanded our network to an all-time high around the world,” said Mike Bidwell, president and CEO of Dwyer Group. “Being in the business of repairing, maintaining and enhancing properties, it was important we do the same on the home front. Not only is our corporate team expanding, but each week we welcome a significant number of visitors and franchisees to our campus.”

Built Wright Construction is overseeing the construction project, which will include utility upgrades, a new parking lot and landscaping. Crews are expected to complete the project by the end of 2017.

The Dwyer Group acquired three new companies last year, including Locatec, a leak-detection service with offices in Germany and Austria; Cumberland County Glass, a nonfranchised company that will complement Portland Glass; and Window Genie, a national company that provides an array of window services.
