HelloFresh facility bringing 750 new jobs to Georgia

A major meal kit company has chosen a Georgia county to be the spot for its first distribution facility in the Southeastern United States.

HelloFresh, the largest meal kit provider in the U.S., will establish its first distribution center in Newnan in a 208,930-square-foot facility at 510 International Park, Gov. Brian Kemp announced.

The move would bring more than 750 jobs to Coweta County.

“It is a pleasure to welcome the largest meal kit service in the U.S. to the Peach State,” said Governor Kemp. “I’m confident Newnan’s central location and our state’s unparalleled, rapidly growing logistics network will serve HelloFresh well as they invest in Georgia and bring jobs to the hardworking people of Coweta County.”
