(Hebron, Ky.) - DHL Express is set to expand its current operations at CVG, which will create nearly 100 full-time jobs.  

Governor Andy Beshear announced this week that DHL Express will invest $192 million to develop a new 305,200-square-foot aircraft maintenance facility on a 50-acre site located south of and adjacent to DHL’s current CVG hub.  

The project will include the addition of eight new aircraft gates at its current ramp to support CVG hub operations and repurpose the existing aviation and line maintenance space in Building 3.  

The expansion is expected to create 86 quality jobs.  

“Kentucky has one of the strongest distribution and logistics sectors in the country, and DHL plays a major role in that success,” said Gov. Beshear. “The commonwealth’s ideal geographic location and access to resources make it incredibly easy for companies to reach their consumer base in a timely and efficient manner. I want to thank DHL for their continued commitment to Kentucky and look forward to many more years of their success here in the commonwealth.” 

A project start date was not announced.
