Retail giant Amazon plans to open its first fulfillment center in Missouri City. Expected to launch in 2021, the 1-million-square-foot facility will create more than 500 new full-time jobs with industry-leading pay and comprehensive benefits. It will be located at 2303 Hurricane Lane.
“Missouri City and Amazon are alike when it comes to success, diversity, customer service and community,” said Missouri City Mayor Yolanda Ford. “We are looking forward to this new business model, which focuses on customer service and expands the economy, as this is another partnership that will build on our commercial tax base, helping to ease the property tax burden on residents.”
