MCDONOUGH, GA. — Tory Burch LLC, a women’s accessories and apparel retailer, plans to invest more than $60 million by 2020 for a new distribution center in McDonough, a south Atlanta suburb in Henry County. The distribution center will support Tory Burch’s e-commerce business and is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2017. The new facility is expected to create more than 150 jobs by 2020, including positions in management, administration, transportation, order processing, packaging and shipping. Tory Burch will fully occupy the 753,000-square-foot distribution center located in the Lambert Farms Logistics Park in McDonough. Tory Burch leased the space from the developer, Panatonni Development Co. Inc. Wit Truitt and Reed Davis of JLL represented Panatonni in the lease deal. The industrial facility features an adjacent pad site, which makes the development expandable up to 1.5 million square feet.

The retailer sells clothing, shoes, handbags, accessories, watches, home and beauty items.
