The campus is being developed by a joint venture partnership between two Indianapolis companies, Duke Realty and Browning Investments.<\/p>\n<p>The new project will enable Walmart to process and ship orders for its fast-growing online operation.<\/p>\n<p>The company has more than 36,000 Indiana employees and plans to begin hiring for full-time positions at the new facility in October.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy combining large-scale online fulfillment centers with Walmart\u2019s distribution centers, world-class transportation network and 4,200 stores, we have the ability to get incredibly close to our customers to deliver orders faster and at a lower cost,\u201d Brent Beabout, senior vice president of supply chain and logistics for Walmart Global eCommerce, said in a news release. \u201cThis center alone will allow cost-effective delivery to more than 160 million people in just one to two days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Indiana Economic Development Corp. offered Walmart up to $2.93 million in conditional tax credits and up to $200,000 in training grants. The tax credits are performance-based, meaning the company is not eligible for incentives until workers are hired. The town of Plainfield is considering additional incentives for the project at the request of the Hendricks County Economic Development Partnership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the world\u2019s largest companies consider where to grow, Indiana is skyrocketing to the top of the location list,\u201d said Governor Mike Pence. \u201cWalmart would be hard pressed to find a stronger business climate and commitment to lower taxes and less regulation than the environment offered in the Hoosier State. We are thrilled to welcome this global company\u2019s growth in Indiana, a state that works.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo credits: www.loopnet.com<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Walmart, the world&rsquo;s largest retailer, will locate an e-commerce warehouse and distribution center in Plainfield, where it plans to create up to 303 new jobs by 2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":260,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1590,21742],"tags":[1815],"class_list":["post-1004098926","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-indianapolis","category-latest","tag-national"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
