NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (Dec 10, 2024) — Liebherr recently celebrated the groundbreaking of its new state-of-the-art logistics center in Tupelo, Mississippi. Located at the Hive Business Park, this advanced facility represents a milestone in the company’s ongoing commitment to strengthening distribution capabilities across the Americas.
For Liebherr, the new logistic center is of great importance for the whole group. This investment solidifies Liebherr’s strategic focus on long-term operational excellence. Its central location offers numerous logistical advantages and enables the company to better serve its customers who are not only based in the U.S., but also across the Americas.
The first phase involves an investment of $176 million and is expected to create 180 new jobs in the region once completed — with plans to expand further and create over 300 jobs in the long term.
The new logistics center in Tupelo will serve as a hub for a wide range of operations, including warehousing, distribution, preassembly, kitting, repackaging and customs and export services. The facility will initially support the distribution of products from Liebherr’s earthmoving, tower cranes, concrete technology, mobile and crawler cranes, maritime cranes, and components. Additional product segments are expected to be integrated shortly after operations commence.
