01/13/2017
A premier lifestyle brand in the fashion home space, Z Gallerie will create 115 new jobs and invest $3.7 million in a 225,000 square foot east coast warehouse, distribution hub and customer service center at Skyview Business Center in Lithia Springs, Georgia.

The Douglas County, Georgia distribution center is slated to operate at full capacity by 2019, and the newly created positions will include in-house activity as well as transportation of goods.

“Z Gallerie is excited to partner with the state of Georgia to expand its distribution center operations in the Southeast. Georgia’s geographic location provides an optimal distribution point to service our present and future customer needs,” said Victor Navarrette, Vice President of Operations. “With the regions access to highway, rail and port, Z Gallerie will be able to optimize efficiencies and cost in delivering products to our stores and customers throughout the U.S.”

“Douglas County has proven to be a destination for highly reputable corporations as our infrastructure allows them to easily reach their customers, attract top quality labor and receive superb customer service from our outstanding county staff,” said Douglas County Chair Romona Jackson-Jones.

“Georgia’s commitment to improving the state’s logistics infrastructure over the next 10 years is a win-win for companies like Z Gallerie as they are choosing Georgia to be able to easily access and supply their retail stores along the east coast,” said GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson. “Douglas County is an excellent choice for their new distribution facility, and we look forward to the success of the company in our state.”

“Georgia remains a top choice for companies to relocate and expand their operations,” said Governor Nathan Deal. “Z Gallerie’s decision to create a new distribution center in Douglas County is a testament to our state’s top-ranked business climate and skilled workforce. I have no doubt that our logistics framework will support future growth and success for Z Gallerie.”
