St. Cloud Mayor: Amazon Fulfillment Center Coming to Town
ST. CLOUD An Amazon fulfillment center is coming to St. Cloud. Mayor Dave Kleis made the announcement Tuesday during his 16th annual State of the City address on the stage at Eastman Park by Lake George.
Amazon will be here in St. Cloud this year. They ve done the permits, there are hundreds of jobs. It will be a fulfillment center out by Heatherwood Road out by 94.
Kleis gave no other details about that project. Amazon currently has 110 fulfillment centers in the U.S. and 185 globally. The only location in Minnesota right now is in Shakopee.
The idea of creating a new half-cent sales tax in St. Cloud is back on the table after city leaders decided not to move forward with any ballot questions in the November election.
