SupplyHouse plans to invest about $19 million in a Locust Grove fulfillment center expected to create 330 jobs in Henry County. Gov. Brian Kemp announced the project Nov. 12, with construction scheduled to begin in November 2026 and the center projected to be fully operational in 2027.
The planned facility at 3090 Highway 42 would cover 715,000 square feet, including 35,000 square feet of office space. State and local officials pointed to its location near Interstate 75 and connections with metro Atlanta’s air, rail, road and port transportation networks.
SupplyHouse expects to hire for management, administrative support, technical work, operations, maintenance and quality control. The online distributor sells plumbing, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning, and electrical supplies. It carries more than 350,000 products from over 500 brands and operates primary fulfillment centers in Nevada, Texas, Ohio and New Jersey.
Company Chief Operating Officer Nando Cunha said the Southeast expansion is intended to put inventory closer to customers and reduce transit times. Locust Grove Mayor Carlos Greer welcomed the planned facility and its expected 330 jobs. Kemp cited Georgia’s infrastructure and workforce development resources as factors in attracting business investment.
