BUHLER, Kan. — Local Buhler developers and officials were excited to break ground on Buhler Industrial Park Phase II this week. This is the first major industrial investment in the city in over a generation.
Buhler Industrial Park is designed as a practical solution for businesses seeking cost-effective, purpose-built spaces such as metal buildings and workshops. Buhler Industrial Park is designed with the specific needs of small- to mid-range cost-effective industrial sites and buildings in mind.

Daniel Friesen, former mayor of Buhler and site co-developer, said, “This space offers a unique haven for entrepreneurs, hobbyists, and creative minds alike. Here, you can find the ideal space for your small commercial enterprise, hobby projects, or the coveted man-cave and she-shed hideaway.”
Buhler Industrial Park represents a commitment to economically meeting the diverse needs of local entrepreneurs, hobbyists, and small businesses. The park was designed with practicality and affordability in mind while not sacrificing functionality. By providing a range of options and essential utilities, the Park will empower prospective business owners to build their dream venture in an environment that fosters growth.
“We are excited to celebrate the launch of Buhler’s newest industrial park,” said Jake Schmidt, current mayor of Buhler and local business owner, “This development will offer practical space for businesses to begin and grow within our community - we are very appreciative of the investments being made by Daniel and his team.”
Key features of Buhler Industrial Park include:
Full Utilities: Sites are utility ready - everything you need to get started, from high-speed broadband to water, sewer, and access to gas and electricity.
Spec Building in Progress: A 2,400 square foot spec building will be available for purchase before the end of the year. The spacious spec building includes overhead doors, and is equipped with utilities and restrooms.
