Corporate Offices in Wichita
Wichita is Kansas’s best-known industrial and aviation center. Koch is headquartered in Wichita and remains one of the largest privately held companies in the United States. The city also contains major aircraft manufacturing, engineering, food-processing, and energy operations.
Corporate Offices in Overland Park, Leawood, and the Kansas City Metro
The Kansas side of the Kansas City metropolitan area is a major headquarters center. Black & Veatch, Compass Minerals, and SelectQuote are based in Overland Park. AMC Entertainment and Euronet Worldwide are based in Leawood, while Dairy Farmers of America is headquartered in Kansas City, Kansas. Visitors should check the state carefully because many companies described as being in “Kansas City” are actually located in Kansas City, Missouri.
Corporate Offices in Topeka and Other Kansas Cities
Topeka is home to financial-services organizations including Capitol Federal and Security Benefit. Merriam is the headquarters of Seaboard Corporation. Other Kansas communities support important agricultural, manufacturing, transportation, and professional-services businesses.
