Valdez Corp., The
The Valdez Corporation is a Texas for-profit corporation, Texas Secretary of State file number 0112843900 and Texas taxpayer number 30113568270. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts records its state of formation as Texas, an effective Secretary of State registration date of 2 October 1989, a Secretary of State registration status of Active and an Active right to transact business in Texas (record retrieved 30 September 2026).
The company trades as Valdez Spice. According to its website, The Valdez Corporation makes custom spice and seasoning blends for other businesses and packages them, mainly under private label. Its range covers bakery, barbecue, dressing, soup and bouillon, snack, sausage and regional cuisine blends, supplied in bulk bag-in-box cases, portion packs or retail jars. The website says the business serves over 300 customers across the United States and has operated since 1982. That date is the company’s own claim and comes before the 1989 Texas registration. No public source examined explains the gap.
It operates from 13951 Senlac Drive, Suite 100, Dallas, Texas 75234, which is also its Comptroller mailing address. The website describes a 40,000 sq ft facility with a research and quality laboratory and stainless-steel blenders of 250 to 2,500 lb capacity. A certificate posted on the website, issued by SGS, registered The Valdez Corporation at that address to the SQF Food Safety Code (Food Manufacturing and Storage and Distribution, Edition 9) for spice and seasoning blends and repacks. The certificate was valid until 24 March 2024. Whether the company is certified now was not verified.
No revenue figures are published. On its federal Paycheck Protection Program loans the company reported 35 jobs (April 2020) and 32 jobs (May 2021), under NAICS code 311942, Spice and Extract Manufacturing. Both loans, of $314,200 each, were forgiven in 2021 according to SBA data.

The profile’s provider shareholder field held only a generic note about US disclosure rules, not shareholder data.

Officers
Directors and officers of The Valdez Corporation
The Texas Comptroller’s franchise tax record for The Valdez Corporation lists four officer entries for report year 2024, held by two people. Michael D. Hanks is recorded as President and as Director. Gary Hanks is recorded as Director and as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). All four entries give the company’s own business address on Senlac Drive, Dallas, and the Comptroller attributes them to the Secretary of State. The Comptroller also names Michael D. Hanks as the corporation’s registered agent, with a registered office in Carrollton, Texas. Being registered agent is a statutory service role, not an office of the company.
Separately, the company’s website lists “Mike Hanks” as CEO & Operations. It also names a Technical Director of Quality, Food Safety and R&D. The website’s job titles are not register roles.
The record gives no appointment or resignation dates, so no former officers or recent officer changes can be identified. The provider officer field for this profile held no officer rows.
Data availability
Partial, current only. The Texas public information report gives names and titles for the latest report year but no appointment dates, history, nationality or country of residence. Nationality is not disclosed for either person.

Group Structure
Group structure of The Valdez Corporation
No parent company, subsidiary or other corporate relationship of The Valdez Corporation was verified in any public source examined. The Texas Comptroller’s franchise tax record shows the company as a Texas-formed corporation and links it to no other entity. Its website presents the business as a single operation at one Dallas facility and names no affiliated companies. The Valdez Corporation’s group structure therefore cannot be described from public records. That does not show the company is independent.
The Texas franchise tax dataset lists several other active entities with “Valdez” in their names, including in the Dallas area. None shares this company’s file number or address, and a similar name is not evidence of a corporate relationship. None is treated as related here.
The provider group field for this profile held only a generic note, not linkage data.
