Rowan EDC Announces New Investment in Local Logistics Hub from DHL Supply Chain

Rowan EDC is thrilled to announce DHL Supply Chain, a division of DHL Group and global leader in the logistics industry, will be expanding their presence to Salisbury, North Carolina.

The DHL Supply Chain will invest over $40 million in tenant improvements at a new warehouse at the Innovation Logistics Center on Peeler Road (I-85, Exit 71), occupying Building 1 with an impressive 713,000 square feet. Crow Holdings is the developer of the property. The operation will be a part of the company’s life sciences and health care business and is set to go live in the summer of 2024.

“We are thrilled to welcome DHL Supply Chain to Innovation Logistics Center and would like to thank the City of Salisbury and Rowan County for their leadership enabling this exciting project,” said Matt Cochrane, Crow Holdings Development’s managing director for the Carolinas.

It is a testament to the emerging importance of this region to the international business community. For Salisbury, the creation of 80 high-quality job opportunities meets a top-priority goal for our City Council and residents.”
