Development, New Jobs in Northwest Arkansas

The Morning News reported this week “New Hotel, Vehicle Dealer, Restaurants Open in Area”.

The new developments in the area will add about 90 jobs to the Northwest Arkansas area. The hotel, a Homewood Suites in Fayetteville, cost over $5 million to construct. The development has 96 rooms with kitchens and is located off of I-540 at exit 16. Fayetteville also opened a new Andy’s Frozen Custard this week that will employ 20 people.

In Springdale, Ryder Systems Inc. opened a new service facility that “will service light- and heavy-duty trucks, tractors and trailers”. The location will have 15 employees. Volkswagen of Northwest Arkansas opened in Rogers in the former Kmart space. The new owners have spent $3 million on buying and renovating the space, and expect to have 27 employees running the dealership on a full-time basis.

This is good for the growth and development in Northwest Arkansas. Looking for real estate or land in Bentonville or Centerton? Visit Northwestarkansasland.com to see land for sale near XNA airport. Click here for more information.
