Amazon plans to establish last-mile distribution operations in Salina, Kansas. The project is expected to create 100 jobs.

The company will construct an approximately 90,000-square-foot-facility on 20 acres in the Airport Industrial Center Subdivision No. 3.

"Amazon is excited to expand with a new last-mile facility in Salina, Kansas, and as a good employer, bring new job opportunities to Saline County,” said Jason Vangalis, Amazon economic development manager. “The region’s strategic location, talented workforce, and strong transportation infrastructure make it an ideal location for our operations. We appreciate the partnership with local officials and look forward to serving our customers throughout north central Kansas."

?"Amazon’s decision to expand in Salina is testament to Kansas’ pro-business environment, strong workforce and strategic location,” noted Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland. “Their investment will create at least 100 new high-quality jobs and reinforce the reputation our state and this region has as a powerful hub for logistics and distribution.”

“This is an exciting milestone for Salina and the entire state of Kansas,” added Pieter Miller, C.M., Executive Director of the Salina Airport Authority. “Amazon’s investment in our industrial center will not only create jobs but will also drive additional development, positioning Salina as a leading regional hub for logistics and advanced industries. The Salina Airport Authority Board of Directors has played a crucial role in guiding the strategic development of the Airport Industrial Center, ensuring that Salina remains a competitive and attractive location for businesses like Amazon."
