Charlotte’s logistics sector continues to grow, with a major expansion planned near the airport.
Averitt says it plans to build a new regional campus on Shopton Road near Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The Tennessee-based company expects to add more than 200 jobs over the next four years, with average salaries just over 81,000
Total investment could exceed $200 million and will bring all of Averitt’s local operations into one location.
Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles says the investment reflects the city’s growing role as a logistics hub. The campus is expected to open in 2028.
