Ashley’s new e-commerce headquarters facility is expected to spur growth and renewal in the historic district and become a hub for thousands of annual visitors, including employees, retailers, vendors and customers from all over the world, company officials said. The Ybor City location is ideal for attracting top design and technology talent to serve the growing e-commerce retail market.
