Amazon to Expand Supply Chain with New Facilities in New York and Texas
Amazon is expanding its U.S. supply chain network by planning two new facilities: a large operations center in Holbrook, New York, and a distribution center in Terrell, Texas. The New York facility will be approximately 4 million square feet and include advanced robotics and technology with an estimated $1 billion investment that could create around 1,000 full-time jobs. In Texas, the company plans to build a 1.2 million-square-foot distribution center for faster delivery and expanded product selection at a cost of about $98 million. These additions are part of Amazon's broader strategy to enhance its logistics infrastructure across multiple states. The Terrell facility is expected to begin construction in August 2026, with completion slated for August 2027. In addition, the company plans to build a sorting warehouse and renovate existing facilities while closing some warehouses as it continues optimizing operations.
