The News: Highline Warren will invest $170 million to establish a logistics and operations center in McDonough, creating 160 jobs in Henry County. The automotive aftermarket and cleaning products company will occupy a 1.1-million-square-foot former Zinus facility and begin operations in late 2026. The location will provide the company with its first East Coast port of entry and enable delivery to approximately 95% of the U.S. population within two days.
Project Watch Take: The project demonstrates the site-selection value of combining an available large-scale industrial building with highway access, port connectivity and proximity to a major metropolitan workforce. Highline Warren’s reuse of the McDonough facility also shows how existing industrial properties can attract substantial new investment more quickly than ground-up development.
