Solomon Associates Opens Office in Houston

Solomon Associates has announced the opening of its office in Houston, which the company says will help it better serve its clients as well as assist in the recruitment of top industry professionals.

“We made a strategic decision to establish a presence in Houston’s Energy Corridor because it is one of the world’s most important energy centers,” said Solomon President and CEO Dale Emanuel. The new office will enable Solomon Associates to provide fast-response on-site support to many existing clients, whose offices are within a 10-mile radius of the new location. In addition, the office is within convenient reach of the Houston Ship Channel and the industry in that area.

Emanuel added that the number of qualified consultants working in the market was another driving factor in the decision. “Our work requires a very specific background and skill set and Houston has a talent pool with deep expertise in the energy industry. A big part of our growth relies on hiring senior consultants with decades of experience who are interested in international travel.”

Solomon Associates has already begun adding senior consultants at the Houston office, and has plans to grow. In addition to the offices for the Houston-based employees, the new location has a “guest” office for Dallas-based Solomon employees to use when serving clients in Houston. Solomon Associates’ new office is located at 3100 Wilcrest Drive, Suite 265, Houston, TX 77042.

The location is in the Westchase area of Houston, one of the city’s fastest growing commercial submarkets with a large number of oil refining and production company headquarters.
