Great Plains Industrial Park, located just outside of Parsons, Kansas, is the perfect option for your business if you are looking for a new site for your manufacturing operation needs.
Our advanced manufacturing industrial park is home to over 6,800 acres of contiguous land suitable for redevelopment.

There are small and large plots of land available on site so you can find the optimum space for fabrication, production, processing, testing, storage, and other manufacturing operations.
The excellent road and rail links in our industrial manufacturing park enable you to quickly receive your parts from suppliers and reduce shipping costs for your finished goods.

Shovel-Ready Sites With 60-Day Permitting at Kansas Proving Grounds
Site selection timelines can make or break a capital investment, and we designed our advanced manufacturing industrial park to move fast. Our Kansas Proving Grounds (KPG) entity structure enables permitting in 60 days or less, a timeline that most manufacturing business parks simply cannot match.
Across our 6,800 acres of contiguous land, greenfield tracts from 5 to 1,000 acres are available with infrastructure already in place, so your team spends less time waiting on utilities and more time building operations. Because road access, rail connectivity, fiber optic broadband, and water infrastructure are ready to serve new tenants, we eliminate the costly delays that come with undeveloped sites. For manufacturers that need to move quickly, our industrial manufacturing park provides the certainty that compressed timelines demand.
