The Liebherr Group plans to invest in a new logistics distribution center for spare parts in Tupelo, Miss., serving customers in North and South America. The center will handle logistics and service operations, such as warehousing, distribution, value-added services (preassembly, kitting, repackaging), and customs and export services. The project is expected to create about 180 jobs.
In addition to the center, the company plans to establish additional facilities for various Liebherr companies and offer more services on the site in the future. The $200 million investment in the development of the future campus is expected to create more than 300 jobs in the long term.
