Walgreens to open new warehouse in Memphis, create 200 new jobs

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Walgreens is bringing a new warehouse to Memphis along with 200 new jobs.

The pharmacy operator would occupy an over 100 thousand square foot fulfillment center on Tchulatech Drive.

Walgreens filed for a $3.6 million tax break with the EDGE Board. According to the application, the mini-fulfillment model the new facility will use is expected to increase the speed of packages to stores, to lockers for pickup and directly to customers’ homes.
