More than 1,000 full-time jobs will be coming to San Antonio, thanks to Amazon's plans to open three new facilities.
The company will open two new fulfillment centers and a delivery station in the city. The projects are expected to create more than 1,500 good-paying jobs with benefits.
The delivery station is expected to launch in 2021 and be located at Brooks. The 350,000-square-foot facility will create hundreds of full and part-time jobs. Councilwoman Rebecca Viagran called Amazon's announcement "good news" and a "great way to head into the New Year."
"The hundreds of additional jobs at Amazon will create more opportunities for residents to live, work and play in the Southside," Viagran said in a release on the city's website. "Over the past several years, District 3 has been the centerpiece for new economic generation for the City of San Antonio with several major companies announcing creation or expansion of new facilities in the Southside, we are happy to have Amazon join this illustrious group brining jobs to San Antonians."
