Blue Apron, a company that makes incredible home cooking accessible to everyone by delivering original recipes and fresh ingredients to customers nationwide, is expanding its fulfillment operations with the opening of a new 495,000 square foot fulfillment center in Linden, New Jersey. The company expects to employ over 2,000 people in the new facility when it opens and to continue hiring to meet its needs.

"We're excited to be expanding our presence in New Jersey and bringing full-time jobs to the Linden community. Our new fulfillment center will help improve the efficiency and capacity of our operations to meet strong customer demand," said Matt Salzberg, Blue Apron co-Founder & CEO.

The Linden facility will be outfitted with state-of-the-art technology and a variety of employee amenities. The fulfillment center is currently under construction and slated to officially open for production later this year.

"We are thrilled that Blue Apron is investing in Linden with its new facility," said Linden Mayor Derek Armstead. "The company's decision to come here will be a boost for our local economy, providing much needed jobs to our area. We look forward to having Blue Apron as a partner in our community."

Blue Apron currently operates fulfillment centers in Jersey City, New Jersey, Arlington, Texas, and Richmond, California. In addition to its new Linden facility, the company also plans to open a new fulfillment center in Fairfield, California.
