Governor Matt Bevin announced Tuesday that Amazon will be building a $1.49 billion shipping hub to serve its fleet of Prime Air planes at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in Hebron, creating 2,700 full- and part-time jobs. Amazon’s Prime Air hub will expand the company’s longstanding presence in Kentucky, where it already employs more than 10,000 full-time team members at several fulfillment center locations in Central and Northern Kentucky. Dave Clark, Amazon senior VP of worldwide operations, said Kentucky’s advantages made it stand out with a large, skilled workforce in a centralized location to nearby fulfillment centers.
