Ribbons will be cut this morning. Macy's will formally dedicate its new 'Fulfillment Center'. That is a fancy term for distribution warehouse. The company will use the facility to fill on-line orders.
The massive facility is near the Cherokee Industrial Park, between Turley and Owasso on 76th Street North.
The plant will eventually employ 1,500 year-round workers. Another 1,000 will be brought on part-time as seasonal help at the holidays.
The plant should have about 1,200 people working by this coming Christmas season.
