From a sugar mill to a hospital, Sugar Land's top employer continues to focus on community

The Houston Methodist Sugar Land is now the city's largest private employer. It's not a sugar mill, but its employees have a similar mentality.

From sugar to medical, the job landscape has changed in Sugar Land, but the effort to serve the community hasn't.

It's the product that gave the town its name and identity. The railroads and mills created jobs and a sense of community that was on display during the Great Depression."The company, the town, and the refinery, everyone came together to make sure everyone kept their jobs as much as they could," Johnson said.

"We were a 54-bed hospital, and we've now grown to 350 beds, with a plan to expand that to 550 beds over the next 10 years," Houston Methodist Sugar Land CEO Chris Siebenaler explained. Sugar Land also has a growing technology community, and local leaders are racing for new ways to attract new companies.
