Erik Collins, Montgomery County development director, confirmed that the purchase is tied to Amazon’s plans for Union.
The site, just east of the Procter & Gamble distribution center on Union Airpark Boulevard, is where Amazon is building its 630,000-square-foot fulfillment center in Union. The center will open next year.
Amazon said its new Union operation will employ 1,500 workers making a starting wage of $15 an hour.
The Amazon center is not only across from P&G’s seven-year-old distribution operation but also north of one of footwear company Crocs’ distribution sites. Crocs is building a third warehouse for its operation, after enjoying a strong sales year in 2020.
Project Bolt Dayton LLC is a Delaware domestic limited liability company created in February this year.
