Hotbed of courting, recruiting

​DALLAS-FORT WORTH –  ​For decades, DFW has been known as a corporate magnet. 

With 21 of the 51 Fortune 500 Texas corporate headquarters located in DFW, the Metroplex is the fourth highest-ranking headquarters metro area behind New York, Chicago and Houston.

In the past year, this area has fueled the Texas growth engine with the heavy influx of corporate relocations firing on all cylinders. 

In addition, 72 major companies have moved their corporate HQ to Dallas since 2010, according to City of Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings. 

The real question is, how is the Metroplex so successful at courting and recruiting businesses?​
