The supply chain management and e-commerce third party logistics provider (3PL) Arvato has opened its seventh logistics facility in Louisville, Kentucky, saying the move further expands its presence in one of the United States’ most important logistics hubs.
The new, wholly-owned site adds approximately 400,000 square feet of capacity, taking Arvato’s total Louisville footprint beyond four million square feet. Expected to create approximately 150 new jobs, the facility further strengthens the company’s ability to support growing fulfillment and distribution requirements for clients across North America, Arvato said.
According to Germany-based Arvato, brands need supply chain solutions that can support growth without adding complexity, whether they are entering new markets, managing rising order volumes, or optimizing delivery performance.
Its new Louisville facility is a direct response to these changing market requirements, the company said. By expanding its U.S. network, Arvato is providing clients with additional capacity, greater operational agility, and access to a highly connected distribution hub. Located near Louisville International Airport (SDF), the facility enables efficient distribution across major consumer markets and supports faster, more reliable fulfillment operations. It also benefits from late cut-off times, enabling faster direct-to-consumer deliveries and supporting time-critical shipments such as spare parts and critical equipment.
