Ryder System Inc. announced Tuesday that it will spend $44 million to open a distribution center in a facility already constructed at 355 Davis Lake Road in Locust Grove. The building will employ 250 people.
“Locust Grove is a growing city in Georgia, so it was a natural fit for our next facility location,” Steve Sensing, Ryder’s president of supply chain solutions, said in a statement announcing the deal. “By increasing our footprint, we improve our customers’ speed-to-market, which is critical in today’s highly competitive environment.”
