UPS to open new distribution facility in Texas
UPS has announced the construction of a new package distribution facility in Round Rock, near Austin, Texas. The new facility will include automated sorting systems and will house about 300 UPS delivery vehicles.
UPS said it will invest more than $70m on the project.
Craig Wiltz, president of UPS’s Red River District, commented: “This new facility in Round Rock will provide additional pickup and delivery service to UPS customers throughout the area so they can focus on growing their business.”
The building’s footprint will be roughly 225,000 square feet sitting on approximately 50 acres of land. The facility’s team will provide pickup and delivery services to UPS customers in the greater Austin area.
The Round Rock facility is expected to open at the end of 2018.
