LIEBHERR has acquired 480,000 sqm of land in Tupelo, Mississippi, to build a new logistics facility.
The business plans to invest in a new logistics distribution centre for spare parts to serve customers in South and North America. The company also intends to build a campus on the site, where various business units from different product segments will operate in the future.
Liebherr aims to create around 180 new jobs in the region.
The continental warehouse of Liebherr-Logistics GmbH will handle logistics and service operations, such as warehousing, distribution, value-added services including pre-assembly, kitting, and repackaging, as well as customs and export services.
Since 2015, Liebherr-Logistics GmbH has been supplying its markets from Oberopfingen in Germany. In 2023, a second distribution warehouse was opened in Born, the Netherlands.
In addition to the continental logistics centre, the Liebherr Group plans to establish facilities for various Liebherr companies and offer additional services on the site in the future. The group plans to invest over $200 million for the development of the future campus. The planned buildings will be used to render services and produce products. In the long-run, Liebherr plans to create over 300 new jobs on the campus.
