Highline Warren Plans McDonough, Georgia, Logistics Operations

07/17/2026
Automotive aftermarket products distributor Highline Warren plans to establish operations in McDonough, Georgia. The $170 million project is expected to create 160 jobs.

The investment will include the redevelopment of a 1.1 million-square-foot facility at 830 Highway 42 South that will serve as a logistics and operations hub, designed to provide product availability and two-day delivery to approximately 95% of the U.S. population. Operations are scheduled to begin in late 2026.

“This investment reflects our continued focus on strengthening our network to better serve our customers,” said Darcy Curran, CEO of Highline Warren. “McDonough and the State of Georgia offer a strategic location with access to a skilled workforce and strong logistics connections to global markets. The region also provides access to our first port of entry on the East Coast, enhancing our ability to move products efficiently, simplify the supply chain for our customers, and support our long-term growth.”

Assistant Director of Global Commerce John Soper represented the Georgia Department of Economic Development (GDEcD) on this project in partnership with the Henry County Development Authority, Georgia EMC, and Metro Atlanta Chamber.

“Georgia’s automotive industry continues to grow at every level of the supply chain, from manufacturing next-generation hybrid and electric vehicles to the products and services that keep them on the road,” noted Pat Wilson, Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Economic Development. “Highline Warren’s investment strengthens that ecosystem and reflects why companies continue to choose Georgia every day: unmatched connectivity, a highly skilled workforce, and access to customers. Congratulations to Highline Warren and our partners in Henry County.”

Highline Warren manufactures and distributes automotive aftermarket fluids, chemicals, filters, cleaning products, and maintenance solutions for automotive, commercial, industrial, and consumer markets.

“Metro Atlanta is built for business, and Highline Warren’s decision to invest in Henry County is further proof,” added Katie Kirkpatrick, President and CEO of the Metro Atlanta Chamber. “Companies choose our region because we offer a complete ecosystem for growth, from talent and infrastructure to long-term business certainty. Highline Warren’s investment reflects those advantages, and we’re proud to welcome the company as it creates 160 jobs and strengthens the regional economy.”
