Carhartt's new distribution center would be located near the AllianceTexas development in North Fort Worth.Apparel firm Carhartt Inc. is eyeing a new shipping hub in North Fort Worth that would create as many as 500 new jobs.
Fort Worth’s city council is considering a proposal to grant the Michigan-based company up to $2 million in tax abatements to locate a new distribution center near the Texas Motor Speedway. The property is at 16101 Wolf Crossing off State Highway 114 andCarhartt plans to invest $80 million in a “state of the art distribution center space,” Cherie Gordon of Fort Worth’s economic development department told city council at a Tuesday work session.
“Those 500 jobs are to be organic and local – they are not having transfers for those jobs,” Gordon said. Carhartt is asking the city for a seven-year, 75% tax abatement on its new operation. Fort Worth’s council has a formal vote on the economic incentives scheduled next month. A family-owned business started in the 1880s, Carhartt employs more than 5,000 workers nationwide.
