Jean giant Levis Strauss & Co. has expanded its footprint in Northern Kentucky with the grand opening of a new distribution depot in Hebron.
The 151,000 sq. ft. depot sits on Langley Drive, near the company’s existing Hebron Distribution Center, where Levi’s and Dockers products are sent to major retailers.
The depot receives products from manufacturers and also adds storage for the distribution center. With this expansion, 20 new jobs will be created at both the depot and the distribution center. That number could double within two years, according to the company.
“This new facility means additional good-paying union jobs for Northern Kentucky,” said Bruce Raynor, President, Workers United. “It also continues to build the long and productive relationship that Workers United and Levi Strauss & Co. have enjoyed for more than 30 years."
The Levi Strauss & Co. distribution center in Hebron opened in May 1999.
