Amazon Plans 1M-SF+ Georgia Facility
Amazon.com plans to develop a new, more than one-million-square-foot fulfillment center in Macon, GA. When opened, the facility will add more than 500 new full-time jobs. The site will be used to pick, pack and ship large-sized items for customers, including household furniture, sporting equipment and gardening tools.
The project is being developed in a partnership between Seefried Industrial Properties and an affiliate of USAA Real Estate Company. The Macon Bibb County Industrial Authority entitled and sold the property.
Gov. Nathan Deal says, “Amazon’s continued investment in our state speaks to our dedication to improve, expand and modernize Georgia’s logistics and distribution network.”
Newly-created jobs will include warehouse, management and supervisory positions. The company currently has more than 2,000 full-time employees at three fulfillment centers located in Braselton, Lithia Springs and Union City.
