Iconic Workwear Brand Dickies Moves HQ To Orange County: Report
Founded 103 years ago in Fort Worth, Texas, Dickies announced that it will move its headquarters to Costa Mesa.
COSTA MESA, CA — In contrast to the trend of businesses fleeing the Golden State for Texas, Fort Worth-based workwear clothing company Dickies announced its headquarters is relocating to Orange County.
According to KTLA, the move is part of parent company VF Corporation's plan to bring Dickies closer to its other brands like Vans and The North Face in Costa Mesa. The company said the relocation will impact approximately 120 employees.
“This move allows VF to further consolidate its U.S. real estate portfolio as part of its stated business turnaround strategy,” the company said in a statement. “But more importantly, by co-locating Dickies with our Vans team in Costa Mesa, we will create an even more vibrant campus where creativity and best practice sharing can thrive through greater collaboration and connections.”
