12:29 PM EST Share The North Jacksonville location is one of 10 Amazon facilities built or in development in the last three years.
Amazon.com announced Dec. 10 it signed a lease at 250 Busch Drive in Imeson International Industrial Park for a last-mile delivery station and will hire “hundreds” of employees.
The North Jacksonville facility will help to speed up deliveries for customers in the Jacksonville area. It is expected to open in 2021, according to a news release.
The city issued a permit Oct. 13 for Threecore LLC in Sarasota to build-out a 477,946-square-foot warehouse at a cost of $15 million.
Building and related permits show the e-commerce facility will cost that amount and there likely will be further investment as conveyors and other equipment are installed.
