Kenton County, KY– Chick-fil-A Supply is poised to generate over 175 employment opportunities in Kentucky with the launch of a new distribution center in Kenton County.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear revealed on Monday that a $100 million distribution center for Chick-fil-A will be established in Elsmere, resulting in the creation of 178 jobs.
The office of Beshear announced that the upcoming facility will provide support for approximately 150 Chick-fil-A locations in the area. The site will cover more than 28 acres. The specific site location was not disclosed on Monday.
Chick-fil-A Supply operates as a dedicated distribution center for the restaurants, functioning as a fully owned subsidiary of Chick-fil-A.
“Once again, an industry-leading company is making a major investment in our commonwealth and our incredible workforce,” Gov. Beshear said. “This investment by Chick-fil-A Supply in Northern Kentucky will provide incredible job opportunities for families across the region, and I am looking forward to their future success here in their new Kentucky home.”
The center is anticipated to commence operations in 2026.
Josh Grote, the executive director of Chick-fil-A Supply, expressed appreciation to Elsmere for the opportunity provided.
“Elsmere not only provides access to quality talent, but its unique location will also allow us to receive product by rail; the third distribution center in our network to do so,” Grote said. “We’re grateful to the Elsmere community and Commonwealth of Kentucky for the warm welcome and look forward to serving Chick-fil-A restaurants in the area.”
