JEFFERSONVILLE, IND. — Amazon.com Inc. plans to open a $150 million warehouse and distribution center in southern Indiana, where as many as 1,050 full-time workers will be hired. The center is expected to open this fall. The Seattle-based online retailer already operates warehouse facilities in Indianapolis, Whitestown and Plainfield and has a total footprint of more than 4 million square feet in the state. The facility will be located in Jeffersonville's River Ridge Commerce Center, which is adjacent to a state-operated port on the Ohio River.
