Kissimmee, Florida — According to state and local development sources, City of Kissimmee plans to invest $4,600,000.00 to build out 12,362 square feet of new space in Kissimmee. The company plans to occupy the new space at 101 Church St in Kissimmee, on or about April 1, 2024. According to the company website By 1920 the population of Kissimmee increased to more than 2,700 people as a result of the Florida land boom. In the 1930s the cattle industry began to flourish in the area. However, citrus and other crops remained as the predominant industry. The construction of the Kissimmee Airport in the 1940s by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in preparation for the U.S. involvement in World War II caused Kissimmee’s population to increase by 38% to 3,700 residents. City leaders wanting to continue Kissimmee’s prosperous history, encouraged growth by attracting retirees to the area during the 1950s. This effort stimulated growth nearly 60%. The next period of growth came in the 1970s with the development of Walt Disney World and other tourist attractions. Since Walt Disney World’s debut in 1971, the City’s population doubled from 7,500 to 15,000 in 1980. The population doubled again in the 1980s to 30,000.
