Toyota to Consolidate U.S. Operations in Texas
Dallas Suburb Will Get North American Marketing, Manufacturing and Finance
Operations

Toyota Motor Corp. plans a sweeping shake-up of its U.S. operations,
consolidating several units in to a new headquarters in Plano, Texas, that
will house 4,000 people and serve as the hub for its North American
marketing, manufacturing and finance operations.
Toyota confirmed the moves on Monday.
Executives will start moving from the company's U.S. marketing operations
headquarters in Torrance, Calif., as soon as July to leased facilities in
the Dallas suburb while a new facility is constructed. The building should
be finished by the end of 2016, a person familiar with the matter said.
Toyota said its financial services operations will move to Plano in 2017.
Toyota North America chief executive Jim Lentz said in a statement that
consolidating the company's major business units will help to "speed
decision making, share best practices and leverage the combined strength of
our employees." Mr. Lentz characterized the move as "the most significant
change we've made to our North American operations in the past 50 years."
As part of the reorganization, Toyota said it will move 250 purchasing jobs
to its technical campus in Ann Arbor, Mich., from a site in the Cincinnati
suburb of Erlanger, Ky.
In addition to most of its California operations, Toyota will shift business
units located in New York and Kentucky to the new facility. Toyota has
corporate offices in New York that handle financial matters and has its
North American manufacturing headquarters in Erlanger, Ky. Manufacturing
purchasing will relocate to its Toyota Technical Center in York Township,
Mich., the company said.
The sweeping reorganization is part of a larger effort by Toyota to cut
costs and run its North American business as a cohesive operation. Until
last year, its sales and marketing, manufacturing and research and
engineering were distinct units with their own headquarters and top
executives.
Toyota has been hunting for a new headquarters that would accommodate its
three now separate business units, people familiar with the matter said. The
California operations were too far from most of the company's other U.S.
business units.
Toyota narrowed its city locations to Denver, Charlotte and Atlanta, before
choosing Texas, which offered a rich incentive package to lure, Toyota, the
person familiar with the matter said.
Real-estate firm Jones Lang LaSalle JLL -0.48% handled the search.
Toyota's U.S. sales unit has been based in Southern California since 1957.
Toyota has expanded its operations in the area to include product planning,
vehicle design, consumer finance and logistics. The auto maker also has a
small manufacturing operation in Long Beach, Calif.
The auto maker also said it would restructure its marketing organization. It
said staff "whose positions are significantly different in the new
organization have been provided with several options, including applying for
opportunities within the new marketing organization or in other departments
at…Toyota Financial Services."
Toyota has operations around the U.S., including vehicle assembly factories
in Kentucky, Indiana, Texas and Mississippi.
California has long been the mainstay of Toyota's U.S. sales, as the state
is for rival Asian auto makers. The Japanese auto maker's decision to
relocate is a blow to California, and a victory for Texas Gov. Rick Perry,
who has been campaigning aggressively to persuade more companies to quit the
Golden State and move to Texas.
The high cost of living and high taxes in the Los Angeles area have led some
of Toyota's rivals to shift jobs out of the area.
Nissan Motor Co. 7201.TO -0.91% moved its U.S. headquarters from
Gardena, Calif., to Nashville, Tenn., in 2006. Honda Motor Co. 7267.TO -4.
47% last year moved a small number of top-level employees from its
neighboring Torrance campus to a suburb of Columbus, Ohio, where the company
has research-and-development operations and large manufacturing facilities.
Torrance Mayor Frank Scotto said on Saturday, "We've done everything over
the years to support Toyota," he said. "This decision isn't something you
make on a Friday afternoon and announce on Monday—this has been going on
for a while." | r*c
