Jonesboro Welcomes Kirkland’s Home Décor!

You may remember… Haag Brown Commercial asked at the beginning of the year through a Facebook post how badly “you” wanted a Kirkland’s in town. The response was TREMENDOUS! Because hundreds “liked”, “shared”, and “commented”, we couldn’t help but look into this obvious large demand. After you, the local community, gained the attention of Haag Brown Commercial CCIM brokers and principal leaders through social media, our company started looking into this possibility of bringing the well-known specialty retailer to town.

After a few phone calls and meetings here and there, the nationally recognized distinctive merchandiser was officially in the process to come to Jonesboro! Haag Brown sent the first news release out in April, a few months later. Click here to view the original press release and photos. After that, Kirkland’s was history.

Saturday, November 10, 2012, Kirkland’s Home Décor in Jonesboro, Ark. opened their doors for the official grand opening weekend events. Located at 3101 E. Highland Drive directly across from Target in The Mall at Turtle Creek, this 9,000 square foot specialty retailer hosted multiple in store sales and local interior designer, MG Meyering, who provided free design tips and consultations for customers from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday.

Some of the benefits and discounts Kirkland’s offers include…

* The designer advantage program, which offers discounts to licensed designers

* The Spin to Win app, which allows customers to receive in store coupons up to

30% off their entire purchase without needing to print or clip

* The KSAVES special alert, coupon, promotion and general information text

messaging (SMS) system, which allows you to receive special offers that you

Northeast Arkansas District Fair Relocation Grand Opening

Photos provided by Amy Long and John Flora

Moving from Stadium Blvd. to HWY 49 Causes Breaking Records

Whether you like tractor driving contests, livestock judging, pumpkin & watermelon weigh-ins, art contests, youth talent shows, pageants, or just food and rides the fair is for you! Serving 16 nearby counties, the 2012 Northeast Arkansas District Fair recently kicked off its grand opening on HWY 49 north of Jonesboro near the Farville Curve with a BIG BANG September 17-22 for the six day fair creating a new record of 68,537 in attendance. According to Fair Manager Jerry Reese, this year’s NEA District Fair broke a new record for the week – jumping about 14,000 people up from the last record of 54,055 in 2010. Attendance is not the only thing that drastically increased this year. Lead by 13 board members and sponsored by the Jonesboro Jaycees and the Craighead County Farm Bureau, the Northeast Arkansas District Fair is proud to open the new 80 AC development to the public for the first time. That’s almost double the size of the old 39 AC Stadium Blvd. fairgrounds location. Some of the new expansions at the grounds include an 80,000 square foot heated and air-conditioned exposition hall, not one but TWO livestock arenas, a public restroom house, and a much larger midway.

Since 2010, Haag Brown Commercial has been very instrumental in meeting the requirements of the expanding non-profit fairground development. Dwindling the search from ten potential locations down to the HWY 49 North location was a task since the required space called for access to a four or five lane highway within city limits, topography of rolling terrain for good drainage, and mixed clay or loam soil to maximize absorption of surface water and enhance the growth of vegetation among other things. With well-thought-through arrangements of Vance Construction Solutions and many others, the current relocation site was carefully developed into two distinct areas- the seasonal area and year round area. The goal is to place seasonal facilities such as the livestock facilities in a separate area than the facilities such as the exhibit hall so that renters can accommodate the area for their events most efficiently.

Special preparations and research was conducted by the Long Range Planning Committee to make this development a good fit for the local residents and community at large. Due to the odor of livestock, the fairgrounds designers created the cattle, pig, sheep, goat, chicken, and rabbit exhibits 300 feet away from the property line for nearby residents. Nearby residents’ interests were also considered when planning to arrange the grandstand stage area facing north so that sound would travel away from Southern residents. An eight-inch high masonry fence was constructed along the southern boundary of the fairgrounds property adjoining the Oaks Subdivision to create enclosure for the people who pay their admission.

The old Stadium Blvd. fair facilities were home to numerous activities such as the NEA Baptist Duck Classic, St. Jude’s Super Bowl Extravaganza, Kiwanis Pancake Day, the Ducks Unlimited Banquets, National Wild Turkey Federation, Delta Waterfowl Association, and the Crowley’s Ridge Cruisers.Other commercial and civic organization events hosted at the past fairground site are listed below.

Commercial Activities	Civic Organizations
Popsicle Clothing Sale	Girl Scouts
NEA Home Builders Association Home & Garden Show	4-H Clubs
Good Sam’s Jamboree	FFA Chapters
KIN Garage Sale	Cancer Society
Temple Baptist Church Fall Festival	Area Agency on Aging

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With all the new expansions, the fair was still able to keep prices low! This year the fair kicked off the grand opening charging $5 admission for adults and $2        admission for children five years or older. Children four years and younger could be admitted for free. Included in the gate admission were all concerts (including this year’s Dustin Lynch and Kip Moore shows), exhibit halls, and the midway. Once inside the gate people could purchase arm-bands ($12 for Thursday or $15   for Saturday) and tickets if they desired.

“By making the old [Stadium fairgrounds] campus available for development, we [Haag Brown Commercial] currently have new first class restaurants and retailers [including Panera, Academy, Sissy’s] to add tax dollars and increase the quality of life in our wonderful community,” Joshua Brown, CCIM of Haag Brown Commercial.

5 Guys Burgers and Fries is OPEN!

Here we go again… Another Restaurant Development by Haag Brown Commercial…

The craving aroma of juicy burgers, hot dogs, and fresh-cut fries fill the air as you enter Jonesboro’s newest national restaurant chain, 5 Guys Burgers and Fries. Located at 2100 Stadium Blvd., 5 Guys Burgers and Fries kicked off the new start Monday, September 10, 2012 during their normal business hours of 11 am till 10 p.m. Famous for their simple menu of only burgers, dogs, sandwiches and fries, 5 Guys Burgers and Fries has established this family owned business as an award winning restaurant group for over 25 years. With the focus on quality, service and cleanliness, Five Guys Burgers and Fries has expanded to over 1,000 locations in 47 states and 6 Canadian provinces. The Washington D.C. based company offers hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and french fries, with over 250,000 possible ways to order a burger. *

“Five Guys is a great addition at the perfect time as our college football atmosphere is at an all time high. If Jonesboro is wanting to be known for being a “college town”, the addition of Academy Sports and 5 Guys Burgers all in the same year says we are well on our way. It’s awesome to see so many college kids working in both of these stores,” said Joshua Brown, Haag Brown Commercial Principal. *

After months of speculations and rumors, March 13, 2012, Haag Brown Commercial announced 5 Guys Burgers & Fries was coming to town! Since then, Greg Haag and Joshua Brown, both Principal Brokers, have been instrumental in developing the new, modern looking retail duplex behind Office Depot. To honor the 2,000 to 3,000 square feet requirement and preference to corner or end-caps, Josh and Greg created a “build-to-suit” project.

“We are excited to bring this new concept to our area,” said Greg Haag. “We are sure that it will quickly become a Jonesboro favorite, as it is a huge draw for college audiences in similar markets.” *

The new restaurant is located directly in front of Cheddar’s Casual Café on Jonesboro’s most popular road, Stadium Blvd.

Five Guys Burgers and Fries, originally established with only four Murrell brothers, applied the advice Jerry and Janie Murrell gave to the boys when they were young. “Start a business or go to college.” Obviously the brothers decided to open their own burger joint where they practiced serving hand-formed burgers cooked to perfection and fresh-cut fries cooked in pure peanut oil. After the business started winning many local awards including the D.C. “#1 Burger in the Metro Area”, the brothers decided to expand the business to keep up with demand. With the expansion of their business came the expansion of their family and a fifth brother was born. Eventually in 2003, “five guys” together with Jerry and Janie Murrell began offering franchise opportunities. In just under 18 months, Five Guys Enterprises sold options for over 300 units. The overwhelming success of franchising a local restaurant made national news with articles in trade publications such as Nation’s Restaurant News, Restaurant Business Magazine, and the Franchise Times. Now, over 20 years after Five Guys first opened, there are over 1,000 locations nationwide and over 1500 units in development. *

HWY 49 Dairy Queen :: Miracle Treat Day Follow Up

* Manager Anand Patel sitting with Dairy Queen Staff behind standing in front of the large DQ blow up obstacle course.

With your help, DQ of Jonesboro raised more than $1000 in 12 hours & sold a total of 394 Blizzards during Miracle Treat Day July 26th to benefit Arkansas Children’s Hospital!

Recently one of our HWY 49 North developments, the new Dairy Queen on Hilltop, hosted Miracle Treat Day July 26, 2012 to help raise funds for Arkansas’s local Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, Arkansas Children’s Hospital in Little Rock, Ark.

Because Dairy Queen on Hilltop was featured as one of the HB Business of the Week Award Winners, we promoted this company by spreading the word about deals or events they had coming up that week, including Miracle Treat Day. A while back we posted a blog explainging how Dairy Queen on Hilltop is making Jonesboro a better place by hosting this event. We also explained in more detail exactly how Dairy Queen was helping provide funding to Arkansas Children’s Hospital by hosting an event created by DQ’s corporate office to support CMN Hospitals nationwide.

By donating all the proceeds from all Blizzard sales, collecting spare change, and selling paper balloons on July 26, Dairy Queen of Jonesboro was able to raise well over $1000 for AR Children’s in Little Rock. To view the national total raised for CMN Hospitals July 26th,  you can visit www.miracletreatday.com later this fall when it is released. Until then please view these photo we took to include you in the day’s events!

When We Grow, You Grow :: HB Ribbon Cutting 2012

June 25, 2012 Haag Brown Commercial proudly broke the ribbon to unleash the beginning of what would soon became a Northeast Arkansas economic earthquake. With the accompliment of the Jonesboro Chamber of Commerce, Greg Haag and Joshua Brown proudly lead Haag Brown Commercial Real Estate & Development in the company’s second ribbon cutting.

Since the company was established in 2010 by Greg Haag and Joshua Brown, Haag Brown Commercial has hosted two ribbon cuttings- one for the beginning of the company and one for when the company  moved to a larger office. The first ribbon cutting was at 225 S. Church St. Jonesboro, Ark. back in 2010 and the second ribbon cutting that was a month or so ago, which is now the current office, located at 2915 Browns Ln. Jonesboro, Ark.

Beginning as a sole-proprietorship company led by Greg, Josh, and Josh’s assistant, Janae, Haag Brown Commercial has expanded to currently employee (6) individuals.  Because of the drastic growth in property representation, Haag Brown has acquired an expert leasing agent, a marketing and media relations coordinator, a marketing and social media coordinator, and a second office assistant.

Over the past few years, Haag Brown Commercial has drastically grown, dominating the commercial real estate market in Northeast Arkansas along the way. Some people even describe us as a small business doing BIG things!

Although HB mostly works to improve the lifestyle of Jonesboro, Greg and Josh have been key players in many development projects outside of Jonesboro and the state of Arkansas. Some of the areas Haag Brown has developed recently would include Fort Smith, Conway, North Little Rock, and even some parts of Oklahoma.

In addition to acquiring many physical property representations, Haag Brown has also significantly established a branded name in the online community on many social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and LinkedIn and other useful sites such as Google +, Bitly, Visibli, Loopnet, and our main website haagbrown.com.

So far this year alone, the company’s Facebook page has acquired well over 1,500 “likes” and normally peaks every other week with tremendous feedback from posts. So far the record for the highest amount of people reached by one single post on our Facebook page is 25,578 people reached!

Since the beginning of the year our twitter page has increase by 194 followers and our LinkedIn page has increases by 24 followers. These numbers couldn’t happen without you! All we can say to express our gratitude is thank you.. Thank you very much for engaging with us! We couldn’t grow our numbers effectively if it were not for the community’s encouragement, excitement, and engagement with our company.

Because of the engagement of our followers’ comments, likes, shares, and retweets on all our social media sites, we were successful in bringing many businesses to Jonesboro including Kirkland’s Home Decor, 5 Guys Burgers, Plato’s Closet, and Panera Bread. Continue to comment, share, like, retweet, and mainly interact with us through all our sites. When you tell us your thoughts, we listen, and try our very best to bring the VERY BEST to Jonesboro to help improve everyone’s quality of life. Below you can see just exactly how you have helped us since the beggining of the year and over the summer!

Jonesboro is Growing- New Business Means New Jobs!

Have you noticed the tremendous increase of activity in Jonesboro over the past year- more specifically the past 3 months?! Jonesboro, being the 5^th most populated city in Arkansas[1], is well on its way to becoming the emerging leader of Arkansas’s economy.

Believe it or not, but Jonesboro is one of only 26 cities in the 363 metropolitan statistical areas in the U.S. that has not only recovered jobs lost from the economy’s recent downfall but has added to them[2]!

Currently, Jonesboro located along U.S. Highway 63 (soon to be Interstate 555), serves a trade area of about 500,000 people in 20 counties in Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee[3]. That’s a pretty good size! It also has steadily grown over 40% in size since 1990 and is estimated to maintain that same or greater level of growth over the next 20 years[4]!

With that being said, you can now understand the level of importance the growth of Jonesboro has on not only this 80 square mile city but also on the surrounding areas.

Recently my future sister-in-law mentioned to me that the hype of all of the new businesses coming to Jonesboro is the reason her husband wants them to move from Arkadelphia, Ark. to Jonesboro. That is about a 3 ½ hour drive.

You can imagine the impact these new business will have not only in creating new jobs (bringing in more money flow) but also in increasing the population. But it’s not just new businesses coming into the area that is creating a lot of anticipation. There are also many areas around town that are expanding and adding on to their original developments to meet new demands. How exciting!

Because of all the latest excitement in Jonesboro’s economic growth, our company decided to document some of the main developments in town.We put together a little packet for your use. Above you can see a map of developments in Jonesboro. If you click on the map above, or CLICK HERE, it will take you to a more detailed write up on each of these properties, including Google Map links of these locations and Loopet links of properties in the surrounding areas that are open to lease, build to suit, and much more. Better jump on the band wagon fast! All the good locations are going to be gone before you know it!
