FRANKLIN, Ind. – Mayor Steve Barnett announced Wednesday that Amazon is coming to the northeast quadrant of the I-65 interchange in Franklin. He stated, “I am proud to welcome Amazon to our beautiful city. This is great news for Franklin and the entire state of Indiana, as Amazon continues to invest in the local market. We’re thrilled Amazon has chosen the Sunbeam Development location to expand their operation and look forward to many partnerships in the future.”
The new state-of-the-art 10,000 square-foot sort center, which should launch later in 2022, will create hundreds of new roles in the Hoosier state. The employees at this facility will play integral roles, everything from receiving inventory, sorting, and shipping customer orders, to supporting network logistics.
Since 2010, Amazon has created more than 20,000 jobs and invested more than $15 billion in Indiana.
