Amazon Seeks To Hire 200-Plus Workers In Kyle

AUSTIN, TX — Amazon seeks to hire more than 200 workers in Kyle later this year at its leased 307,840-square-foot facility in the Kyle Crossing Business Park, officials revealed Tuesday.

Developed and owned by Majestic Realty Co., the 40-acre business park is one block west of I-35 in the mixed-use master planned community of Plum Creek —located some 20 miles south of downtown Austin.

“Demand for high-quality industrial space has surged along with online sales in the first half of this year,” Majestic Senior Vice President Brian Masterman said in a prepared statement. “Kyle Crossing offers brand new facilities in a highly accessible location that is perfectly situated to serve two of the nation’s fastest growing metro areas.”

Based in Southern California, Majestic is the largest, privately held developer and owner of master-planned business parks across the United States with offices from California to Pennsylvania. The company broke ground on the Kyle Crossing in late 2018.

Located between Austin and San Antonio, the City of Kyle is one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas. Once primarily a bedroom community and now a city of over 50,000 residents, city officials have prioritized bringing more jobs and business to the community in recent years.

“More and more businesses are discovering that Kyle has everything they need from a great workforce and schools to affordable living options for their workers,” Kyle Mayor Travis Mitchell said in a prepared statement. “We’re excited to welcome Amazon to our community.”

ENF Technologies broke ground on its new U.S. headquarters in Plum Creek earlier this year. With less than half of the land developed to date, Plum Creek features more than 2,500 single-family homes, 1,800 multifamily homes and a 100-acre Austin Community College campus. A mixed-use town center, future housing of all types and more than 8 million square feet of commercial development are planned.

“Commercial development in Plum Creek is accelerating at the same time that we’re adding more diverse housing, services and amenities,” Momark Principal Terry Mitchell, who oversees development at Plum Creek, said in a prepared statement. “The community has matured and now offers a true live-work-play environment that is attainably priced and appealing to companies and their employees.”
