Looking for an authentic Arizona experience away from the urban bustle? GO WEST and see for yourself where the best of Arizona's past and present comes together.
Tolleson is a self-contained community, 10 miles west of downtown Phoenix. W.G. Tolleson of South Carolina founded the town in 1912. Tolleson measures about six square miles and was incorporated in 1929. Once dependent on agriculture, Tolleson today has a strong commercial and industrial base.
Principal Industries The City of Tolleson has become a strong distribution hub for companies wishing to deliver products to southwestern markets. This is primarily due to its excellent location just south of the I-10 and the interchange with the new loop 101, to be completed by the end of 2000. The city of Tolleson hosts several large employers, including Sunland Beef, Kroger’s, Albertson’s, Salt River Project, and Sysco Food Systems. In addition to distribution and food, fiber and natural products, the community has a strong manufacturing structure.
