About Us
TaxFree Shopping is a family-owned and operated company created to promote shopping and economic tourism to the State of Texas. Founded in 2001, TaxFree opened its first location in the basement of NorthPark Center in Dallas, TX which it quickly outgrew. As a small business, TaxFree is proud to have supported employees and their families as it expanded across the state. Today we proudly serve thousands of international clients every year in 12 locations in the Dallas, Houston, San Marcos and McAllen areas including the DFW and IAH airports. We strive to provide an inclusive work environment for our employees and a professional customer service experience for our international clients.
TaxFree Shopping is rated A+ with the Better Business Bureau and has won Customer Service awards from international tourism industry partners. We are proud members of the Texas Border Coalition, Texas Travel Alliance, among others, to promote shopping tourism to the State of Texas.
