Columbus-based Cummins has inked a lease for a more than 1 million-square-foot warehouse and distribution facility at the Mohr Logistics Park in Whiteland. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Mohr Capital said in a news release this month that the deal is the fifth major lease for the industrial park.
“I’ve known since my early days growing up in Indianapolis that there are few brands stronger or more respected than Cummins,” Mohr Capital CEO Bob Mohr said in the release. “Mohr Logistics Park is very proud to have Cummins bring one of their largest global facilities to Mohr Logistics Park. Many of Cummins’ employees and service providers will consider Mohr Logistics Park their home for many years to come.”
A spokesperson for Cummins told Inside INdiana Business on Tuesday that DHL will operate the facility as a logistics provider on behalf of Cummins. DHL is in the process of hiring employees for the facility, though a specific number of jobs being added is not yet known.
“The proximity of suppliers and the access to major inter-state highways, including I-65, I-69, I-70, and I-74, make this location favorable for Cummins to serve it’s customers,” the spokesperson said.
The facility is expected to be at full operating capacity in 2025.
“We’re pleased that Cummins has leased space at Mohr Logistics Park,” said Gary Horn, chief development officer at Mohr Capital. “This move highlights the strength, quality and attractiveness of our Park. Cummins joining us brings significant momentum to the strength of the Park’s high-quality tenants and thriving logistics presence in the Indianapolis market.”
Mohr Capital said it has plans for more than 7 million square feet in additional industrial buildings.
