Chattanooga is set to gain more than 300 new jobs as Amazon plans to develop a new delivery station in the city, further strengthening the region’s position as a logistics and distribution hub.

The facility, located at 3400 Cummings Road, will be approximately 200,000 square feet and is expected to begin operations in 2028. The delivery station will support local package processing and last-mile delivery operations as Amazon continues to invest in faster delivery speeds for customers across Southeast Tennessee.

In addition to the more than 300 jobs expected at the facility, the operation will support a network of independent delivery service partners that serve customers throughout the region.

The project represents Amazon’s first delivery station of its kind in Chattanooga. The company worked with the Chattanooga Chamber, the city’s development services team and local leaders throughout the planning and real estate process.

“Amazon’s decision to bring a new delivery station here is further evidence that Hamilton County is one of the country’s most important logistics hubs,” Hamilton County Mayor Weston Wamp said. “This investment will create more than 300 jobs, strengthen our local economy, and create new opportunities for working families.”

Chattanooga Mayor Tim Kelly said the investment will help create employment opportunities for local residents while improving delivery service in the market.

“It’s always great news when you hear that a company like Amazon is continuing to invest in the Chattanooga region,” Kelly said. “In today’s economy, there are fewer and fewer jobs available for residents who lack certifications and degrees, and Amazon helps to fill this opportunity gap as they upgrade their delivery speed in the Chattanooga market.”

Amazon’s investment in Chattanooga adds to its broader presence across Tennessee. Since 2010, the company has created more than 25,000 full- and part-time jobs statewide and invested more than $30 billion in Tennessee through infrastructure, employee compensation and support for small- and medium-sized businesses.

According to Amazon, those investments support economic growth across the state and contribute to additional jobs in industries including logistics, construction and professional services. Tennessee-based independent sellers also continue to grow through Amazon’s store, contributing to local economic activity and job creation.
