Tractor Supply to Start Construction on New Arkansas Distribution hub
Tractor Supply Company has announced the groundbreaking of its new distribution center in Maumelle, Arkansas.
The $128 million facility will be Tractor Supply’s eighth and largest distribution hub.
When it opens in late 2023, the distribution center will create approximately 500 new full-time employment and service over 300 Tractor Supply shops at full capacity.
The facility features 50,000 square feet of mezzanine space dedicated to the company’s expanding eCommerce division.
Tractor Supply President and CEO Hal Lawton was joined for the event at the site by Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge, Arkansas Secretary of Commerce Mike Preston, Maumelle Mayor Caleb Norris, and other local and state leaders.
“This distribution center will be a vital link in our supply-chain strategy to better serve our existing stores and future growth in Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma and surrounding states,” Lawton stated.
“Tractor Supply is committed to a more sustainable future, and our investments in Maumelle support a positive impact on the environment. We are grateful for the strong support for this project at the local and state level and look forward to a being a great community partner.”
