Freedom Place Business Park Opens to Combat Human Trafficking

BOERNE, TX, UNITED STATES, October 21, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Freedom Place Business Park, set to open near Boerne, Texas, is poised to become a significant player in the local economy and the fight against human trafficking. The park, which fronts Interstate 10, will span seven buildings covering 82,000 square feet. This development is part of a broader trend in the area, where Kendall County's population has surged by more than 20% since 2020, driving the demand for warehouse space and small office facilities.

The project, spearheaded by Freedom Place Acquisition Partners, aims to address both economic growth and social issues. With the area's businesses multiplying, the park will provide essential infrastructure for entrepreneurs and small companies.

The name Freedom Place is not just a nod to the park's location but also a reflection of the developer's personal mission. Ben Briggs, the founder of Freedom Place, was inspired by his experiences in Asia, where he and his wife, Jenny, started a ministry serving women in a red-light district. Many of these women had been deceived, coerced, or forced into the trade, and the shame had kept them trapped. Over time, the ministry brought gifts and hosted gatherings, and some women found the courage to leave and build new lives.

The couple's work in Asia highlighted the scale of the problem. Briggs saw the need for a sustainable solution and decided to channel the profits from the business park into fighting human trafficking. His family has been in real estate for three generations, and the Freedom Place team has set a long-term goal of giving $50 million to the cause through future projects.

Construction is expected to finish around the end of 2027. As the businesses that move into the park grow, so will the share of profits dedicated to the fight against human trafficking. Each unit in the park will pair a front office or showroom with shop and warehouse space, designed for the electrician whose inventory has quietly taken over the family garage or the entrepreneur who needs room to work but not a full-size warehouse.

The park's mission is clear: to contribute to the local economy while making a significant impact on a global issue. Briggs and his team are committed to turning Freedom Place into a beacon of hope for those seeking freedom. As the park opens its doors, it will not only provide much-needed space for businesses but also serve as a reminder of the ongoing struggle against human trafficking.
