Automated warehouse services company building distribution center in Georgia
A company that provides automated warehouse services to businesses of all sizes will invest $144 million in a new distribution facility in Butts County, Gov. Brian Kemp announced Wednesday.
GreenBox Systems LLC will create more than 300 new jobs in the Jackson area.
"Innovative job creators in every industry continue to choose Georgia," Kemp said. "We're proud GreenBox is adding their name to that long and growing list."
GreenBox's new 1-million-square-foot automated distribution facility will employ automation operators and managers, forklift operators, material handlers, shipping and receiving clerks, logistics coordinators, and maintenance technicians to serve retailers across the region. Job opportunities will be posted to http://www.symbiotic.com/careers/open-positions as they become available.
Operations are expected to begin late next year.
The Georgia Department of Economic Development's Global Commerce team worked on the project in partnership with the Butts County Development Authority, Georgia Power, the Metro Atlanta Chamber, and the Technical College System of Georgia's Quick Start program.
