(Frankfort, Ky.) – Today, Governor Andy Beshear announced the groundbreaking of DHL Express’ new state-of-the-art aviation maintenance facility in northern Kentucky.

DHL Express is investing $292 million to build the facility.

The project will include the construction of a 305,000-square-foot, aviation maintenance facility and expanded aircraft apron at the company’s Global Hub at CVG.

“I am thrilled to support DHL’s continued growth in our state,” said Gov. Beshear. “This expansion not only brings new jobs to the region but also strengthens Kentucky’s position as the premier logistics hub in the United States. Thank you to the leaders at DHL for their continued commitment to the commonwealth.”
