MIAMI — Amazon plans to expand its Florida presence with a new 800,000-square-foot fulfillment center in Miami. Situated within Carrie Meek International Business Park, a speculative industrial development at the Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport, the project will be Amazon’s 10th facility in Florida. Foundry Commercial and Clarion Partners executed the lease with Amazon, which expects to employ more than 1,000 workers at the new facility. Carrie Meek International Business Park is a public-private partnership between the Carrie Meek Foundation, Foundry Commercial and Miami Mayor Carlos Gimenez’s office. The property will utilize automated processes supported by Amazon Robotics, a Massachusetts-based manufacturer of robotic fulfillment systems. The new fulfillment center will bring Amazon’s workforce in Florida to more than 7,500.
