📰About PRIMUS 2
Investop Enterprise LLC is developing a new 33,000-square-foot building at 11851 State Highway 175 in Kemp, Kaufman County. The project, identified in filings as Primus 2, involves site and building construction with an estimated cost of $1,500,000.
Retex Corporation serves as the design firm of record for this construction effort. Jeffery L Kelley is the registered accessibility specialist associated with the project. The TDLR record shows the project was registered in April 2025, with plan review completed in the same month. Construction was scheduled to begin in June 2025 and finish in March 2026.
Project Scale and Cost
The estimated cost of $1,500,000 places this project above the county median for new construction, which is $1,200,000. The median size for similar projects in Kaufman County is 8,500 square feet, making this 33,000-square-foot building significantly larger than the typical filing in the area. The estimated cost per square foot is $45, which is below the county median of $145 per square foot. The scheduled build window of 273 days is close to the county median of 242 days.
Retex Corporation has one other TDLR-registered project in Kemp: the Primus Cable Facility, valued at $100,000, which is closed. Other recent registered projects in the Kemp area include the Eagle Addition, Larson Electronics Assembly, and renovations for Kemp ISD. The area is part of ZIP code 75143, which has a population of about 14,676 and a median household income of $68,996 according to U.S. Census estimates.
Current Status
TDLR completed plan review in April 2025 and construction was scheduled to finish in March 2026; TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The Kaufman County unemployment rate was 4.7 percent in August 2026, lower than a year earlier. This project is distinct from the business operations it may eventually support, as the public record tracks construction milestones rather than commercial opening dates.
