McKINNEY, TX-Traxxas is relocating its headquarters from Plano, TX to Craig Ranch, a 2,200 acre master-planned community in suburban Dallas.

The company, which manufactures and sells hobby-class radio remote controlled cars, trucks and boats, will build a $12 million-plus office campus in Craig Ranch’s $575 million, 250-acre employment district. Situated on 12 acres at the northwest corner of Sam Rayburn SH121 Tollway and Stacy Road, the new office complex is the first corporate headquarters to be located in the newly announced employment district.

Traxxas’ new campus will include a 160,000- square foot to 200,000-square-foot office building, along with a distribution component, retail space and test tracks for public access. KDC has been chosen as construction manager for the four-story project, which will break ground later this year. Completion is scheduled for late 2011.
