ID Logistics Warehousing, LLC has established its first presence in Virginia with a 582,000-square-foot distribution facility in eastern Henrico County. The supply chain management company is expected to create approximately 1,000 new jobs with its estimated $83 million investment.
ID Logistics will operate out of developer Ashley Capital’s recently completed I-895 Logistics Center building at 7011 S. Laburnum Avenue. At this location, the company will manage complex, regulated inventory and fulfillment processes for high-demand retail and direct-to-consumer household essentials, such as cleaning and beauty products.
“ID Logistics is very pleased to be opening our newest facility in Henrico, Virginia,” said Franck Bouny, Deputy Chief Operations Officer, ID Logistics US. “You’re in great hands under the leadership of Omar Bin Ferdous, Director of Operations, and Jonathan Jackson, VP of Operations, who will lead the site to great things. I look forward to partnering with local leadership and your community as a whole to bring fantastic local talent into the ID Logistics family.”
With the addition of its Henrico facility, ID Logistics US has expanded its national network to 56 sites across 20 states. The investment highlights Henrico’s strategic location on the East Coast and its multi-modal infrastructure, including direct access to the region’s major interstate corridors, commercial aviation resources at Richmond International Airport, and Virginia’s deepwater marine terminals. These assets, paired with available skilled talent and a supportive business climate, make the locality a practical choice for international firms expanding their footprints.
“It is a pleasure to welcome ID Logistics to Henrico as they establish their first Virginia operation,” said Varina Magisterial District Supervisor Tyrone E. Nelson. “An investment of this scale speaks volumes about the strength of our community and the depth of our local talent. These 1,000 new jobs will not only create direct career pathways for our residents but also help families across the region get the everyday household essentials they need faster. We wish the ID Logistics team great success as they launch this new facility.”
Rural King Invests $40M in Henry County
In late June, Rural King announced it will invest $40 million to establish a new distribution facility in Henry County. Upon completion, the national retail brand that specializes in farm and home supplies expects to create 150 new jobs at the facility.
“We’re excited to expand our distribution network with this new facility in Henry County and deepen our commitment to serving customers across the region,” said Rural King Vice President of Human Resources Amy Shafer. “This investment reflects Rural King’s continued growth and our dedication to creating meaningful career opportunities in the communities we serve. Henry County offers a strong workforce and welcoming business environment, making it an ideal partner for this next phase of our expansion. We look forward to increasing our engagement in the community.”
As part of the investment, Rural King acquired an existing 500,000-square-foot warehouse facility at the Patriot Centre Industrial Park that was previously vacated by VF Corporation in 2025. The site selection aligns with broader efforts by the Spanberger Administration and the Commonwealth to leverage existing business-ready sites across Virginia and to drive business investment to every community.
“Rural King’s decision to locate its new distribution center in Henry County underscores Virginia’s position as a premier logistics hub on the East Coast,” said Governor Abigail Spanberger. “This investment builds on that foundation by bringing new life to an existing facility and creating meaningful jobs for the region. We’re proud to increase Rural King’s presence in Henry County and to support a project that will strengthen our supply chains and create quality jobs for hardworking Virginians.”
“We look forward to supporting Rural King’s growth as it joins a community with a proud history of making and moving products that power our economy,” said Secretary of Commerce and Trade Carrie Chenery. “Virginia’s skilled workforce, strategic location, and business partnerships continue to attract investment from national brands like Rural King, and we celebrate that impact in Henry County today.”
The Virginia Economic Development Partnership worked with Henry County to secure the project for Virginia. Gov. Spanberger approved a $750,000 grant from the Commonwealth’s Opportunity Fund to assist Henry County with the project. Funding and services to support the company’s employee training activities will be provided through the Virginia Jobs Investment Program. Rural King’s expansion in Henry County is also supported by the federal New Markets Tax Credits Program.
“Rural King’s decision to locate its logistics operation in Henry County highlights the strength and versatility of our existing building inventory,” said Henry County Board of Supervisors Chairman Jim Adams. “The successful reuse of the former distribution center not only brings a major facility back online, but does so with jobs that provide greater earning potential for our residents. This project reflects our balanced approach to economic development which leverages both new sites and existing facilities to create opportunities that benefit our workforce and our community.”
“Rural King’s decision to locate a distribution center in Henry County highlights the region’s strategic advantages and strong workforce,” said Virginia Port Authority Executive Director and CEO Sarah J. McCoy. “By leveraging the global reach of The Port of Virginia, Rural King is well positioned to efficiently move goods, strengthen its supply chain, and better serve customers across the Mid-Atlantic and beyond. This investment not only supports the company’s continued growth but also brings meaningful jobs and economic opportunities to Southern Virginia.”
