FROM THE CHAIRMAN
Business and Industry Resources 8
As the old saying goes, “I was not born
in Texas but I got here as fast as I
could,” and it’s no less true of the city of
Lufkin. I’ve had the pleasure of calling
Lufkin, and Angelina County, my home
for the last 40+ years.
Sitting in the heart of the Texas Forest
Country is true Texas beauty. From
our timber forests to our parks and
lakes, we have enough to keep you and
your family active all day. And at night
enjoy art, culture, shopping or dining
in our beautifully restored downtown District and throughout
our charming city. If our abundant natural resources aren’t
enough to keep you occupied then you’re ninety minutes from an
International Airport that can take you anywhere in the world.
If your job has brought you here then you can look forward to
becoming a part of some of the most hard-working, earnest,
generous people around. From top rated schools to state-of-theart healthcare, Lufkin is a great place for start-up businesses and
mature companies, alike. And ask just about anyone in Lufkin or
Angelina County: we are a desired spot to raise children, or retire,
from the pace of a big city.
Pull up a chair for a Saturday morning soccer game at one of our
beautiful parks and you’ll hear the laughter of children and the
clapping of parents. Spend Friday nights under the stadium lights
and you’ll see a united football nation and hear the cheering of the
crowd. They must all know as I do, that Lufkin is the best place to
serve, live and love.

BUSINESS
INDUSTRY
&
RESOURCES
Lufkin/Angelina County offers a living and
working environment all businesses need to
thrive. The companies doing business here show
how widely recognized this community is for what
it has to offer – a reasonable cost of living, easy
access to world markets and a highly qualified and
educated workforce.
As the birthplace of Lufkin Industries (now part of GE Oil
& Gas), Temple Inland (now owned by Georgia-Pacific),
Brookshire Brothers Food & Pharmacy and Atkinson Candy,
Lufkin and Angelina County have a long history of taking
companies from infancy and helping them grow to prominent
leaders in their industry. Today, companies that started
relatively small in our area have become the anchors of the
economy and are continuing to grow and prosper. Lufkin
is the largest community between Houston and Tyler, and
it serves a large population from surrounding counties for
jobs, education, entertainment and retail shopping. These
combined services create a daytime population estimated at
more than 100,000 and a service sector to support this size
community.
Lufkin and Angelina County have an abundance of natural
resources that includes pine trees, hardwoods, natural gas,
oil and water. According to the Texas Water Development
Board, “Water rights are the most sought after commodity in
our country today - especially in Texas where the population
is expected to double by 2060.” The City of Lufkin owns water
rights to more than 63,000 acre feet of surface water and is
able to provide both treated and untreated water for business
and industry.
Industrial businesses looking to move or open a new location
may be interested in the Lufkin Business Park. This area is
156 acres of prime industrial land located at the intersection
of State Hwy. 103 East and Loop 287 in Lufkin and within 1
mile of State Hwy 59 and 2 miles of State Hwy 69. The site
has heavy rail access and oversized infrastructure to the site.
Currently, there are 40 acres left on this site.
Services are also provided for businesses that are looking to
host large-scale events or conventions. Lufkin Pitser Garrison
Convention Center provides a meeting place for a variety of
gatherings. The facility offers a wide variety of set-up choices
including seating for up to 2,000. The Angelina County
Exposition Center also is a popular venue for large events.
Known as one of the largest clear span indoor arenas in the
nation, the George H. Henderson Jr. Exposition Center has
the ability to seat up to 10,000 people.
For more information about assistance with conventions
contact the Lufkin Convention and Visitor’s Bureau (936)
633-0349.
Getting businesses established in the area is the mission
of the Lufkin/Angelina County Economic Development.
The team stands ready to assist companies with retention
and expansion needs. Lufkin and Angelina County have a
committed team of leaders, from the 4B Partnership, to
8 | The Guide the Chamber, and other stakeholder groups that all work
together to help local companies continue to grow their
assets and employ the quality workforce that’s proven
here in the Heart of East Texas! These key community
leaders have passed a comprehensive incentive program
in conjunction with State and Federal agencies to provide
a positive business environment for new and expanding
businesses in an effort to encourage positive investment and
job creation. These local incentive policies are favorable to
current industries looking to expand.

WOODLAND HEIGHTS MEDICAL CENTER
For almost 100 years, Woodland Heights Medical Center has
been providing quality health care to East Texans. As the first
hospital in Lufkin, Woodland Heights has been at the forefront
of healthcare in East Texas, continually providing the best
in compassionate care and quality. These high standards are
a product of working closely with physicians, staff and the
community to provide the best possible patient care.
The quality service Woodland Heights provides extends to
many of the service lines the facility offers. The hospital
holds The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for
its treatment of Chest Pain and Heart Failure in addition
to Total Hip Replacement & Total Knee Replacement. By
demonstrating compliance with The Joint Commission’s
national standards for health care quality and safety in
disease-specific care, these awards recognize Woodland
Heights’ dedication to continuous compliance with The Joint
Commission’s state-of-the-art standards.
In April 2015, the facility celebrated the opening of The
Orthopedic Center at Woodland Heights, a unit that focuses
specifically on orthopedic patients and getting them back
to life. As the hospital strives to be the preferred Joint
Care provider in deep East Texas, the philosophy of care
is to provide excellence in patient care by collaboration
on continuum of care, patient education and continuous
performance improvement.
Additionally, last October (2015) the facility began a $9.8
million construction project to expand capacity for key service
lines and enhance the patient experience – an upgrade and
addition in the surgery area and an increase in the Neonatal
Intensive Care Unit (NICU) footprint.
“Woodland Heights continues to grow and invest in the East
www.LufkinTexas.org Texas area to serve the medical needs of our patients and
community,” states Kyle Swift, CEO of Woodland Heights.
“We appreciate the continued support of our physicians, staff
and Board of Trustees and their commitment to being the
healthcare provider of choice.”
In the surgery area, the improvements will include enlarging
the outpatient area and the addition of one new surgical suite.
Aesthetic upgrades will be made throughout the clinical care
areas and in the waiting areas used by family members. These
changes will improve efficiency in the surgery department
and allow for continued growth, as this area has seen a steady
increase in the last several years.
The NICU will see the addition of 9 beds that will take the unit
from six beds to 15, with the footprint extending out from
the unit that was opened in 2013. Since the opening, the
physicians and staff in the NICU have cared for more than 200
babies, which is both a financial and emotional relief for all of
those families.
Woodland Heights also takes pride in the education and
affinity programs offered through Senior Circle, a local
organization that provides a wide variety of opportunities for
those 50 and better who are looking to stay active and healthy
in the prime of their lives. Senior Circle delivers a broad range
of “stay healthy, stay engaged” activities ranging from monthly
