North American transportation company Prime Inc. will invest more than $160 million to establish a new Southeastern regional hub in Spalding County.
Specializing in refrigerated, flatbed, tanker, hopper, intermodal, and logistics transportation services, Prime operates a fleet of more than 7,000 units with more than 8,500 drivers. According to a release from Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, the new facility will create more than 120 full-time jobs and hire more than 50 professional drivers.
Prime’s new Southeastern campus will be located at High Falls 16 Business Center near Griffin. The terminal will house state-of-the-art facilities to complement its driving base, including driver development and training, equipment maintenance, and comfort amenities.
Additional services will include selling well-maintained used truck/trailer equipment and recycling used truck tires to produce aggregate rubber material for usable mulch and pellets. These efforts currently shred more than 1 million truck tires per year, keeping them out of landfills.
