The new fulfillment center, which is anticipated to launch in 2021, will create over 500 new full-time jobs with industry-leading pay and comprehensive benefits, the announcement said.
In the new one million square foot fulfillment center, Amazon associates will work to pick, pack, and ship bulky or larger-sized customer items such as patio furniture, outdoor equipment, or rugs.
"We're excited to be expanding our network of operations in Missouri City," said Alicia Boler Davis, Amazon's vice president of global customer fulfillment. "We are grateful for the strong support we've received from local and state leaders as we broaden our footprint throughout Texas."
Since 2010, Amazon has created more than 43,000 jobs in Texas and invested more than 16.9 billion U.S. dollars across the state, including infrastructure and compensation to its employees, according to the company.
