A Longview-based industrial painting contractor plans to move his operation to Kilgore by late summer.

Kilgore Economic Development Corp. on Monday approved selling six acres in North Kilgore Industrial Park to Louis Hall for $34,017.50. Hall is the owner of H&W Industrial Services, a company with 20 employees that sandblasts and paints oil, gas and water industrial equipment.

"We're moving for location purposes. It's going to be closer for my employees, and it's going to offer us more available land for future expansion," Hall said.

The company operates from Gum Valley Circle in Harrison County.
