CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - Rezul -- Cravey Real Estate Services, Inc. is proud to announce that John Foret has successfully represented Ken Garner Manufacturing in the sale of a major industrial facility at 203 Wayne Watkins Drive in Victoria, Texas. This transaction marks a milestone for the region's industrial and economic development.

The 41,829-square-foot facility, situated on 16 acres within an industrial park, was listed for $7,500,000. Purpose-built for heavy manufacturing, the building features 30-foot clear height, 90 tons of HVAC capacity and an engineered 8-inch concrete slab with double mat rebar—ideal for large industrial machinery. Additional infrastructure includes five overhead cranes (four 25-ton and one 7.5-ton), dual high-capacity electrical panels and full municipal utility access.

With over $2.5 million in crane and handling systems, windstorm engineering and climate-controlled warehousing, the facility is well-suited for high-volume fabrication or specialized industrial operations.

Catalyst for Regional Growth
Victoria's location—between Houston, Corpus Christi and the U.S.-Mexico border—makes it a prime area for industrial investment. The region offers a skilled workforce, strong educational support and business incentives like tax abatements, Freeport exemptions and job training grants. Its infrastructure and lower real estate costs further strengthen its appeal to manufacturers and logistics firms.
