H.R. No. 2110
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Independent businesses are important to the
prosperity of cities throughout Texas, and one such business,
Julio's Seasoning & Corn Chips, has contributed to the vitality and
economic well-being of the Del Rio community for nearly four
decades; and
WHEREAS, Julio's Seasoning & Corn Chips was founded in 1985
by Julio T. Garcia; the former head chef of the Branding Iron Steak
House, Mr. Garcia began making corn tortilla chips while helping
his wife, Lilia, with her catering business; he and his children
initially made and sold chips out of the family kitchen in Del Rio,
and as their customer base grew through word of mouth, they set up a
makeshift commercial kitchen in the garage; the company
subsequently built a 5,500-square-foot manufacturing plant and
restaurant, and it further expanded its capacity in 2019 with the
construction of another 33,000-square-foot facility; and
WHEREAS, Remaining a family-owned company under the
leadership of Mr. Garcia's son, Miguel, Julio's Seasoning & Corn
Chips has developed into a flourishing business with some 90
employees and nationwide distribution; it is best known for its
seasoned corn chips, which gain their distinctive Tex-Mex flavor
from a secret seasoning blend created by Julio Garcia, and its line
of products also includes other seasonings and salsas; and
WHEREAS, Providing jobs and valuable services to the region,
Julio's Seasoning & Corn Chips is a Lone Star success story, and the
Garcia family and their employees may indeed take pride in their
achievements over the years; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize Julio's Seasoning & Corn Chips and
extend to all those associated with the company sincere best wishes
for continued success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Julio's Seasoning & Corn Chips as an expression of high
regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
