In summer 2017, McKesson plans to open a distribution center in Hamptonburgh, N.Y., to better serve parts of Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York and Pennsylvania.
McKesson hopes the new 340,000-square foot distribution center will provide greater market coverage to the Northeast region as it adds to its existing network capacity.
"We are very pleased that McKesson decided to build their newest distribution center in Orange County. The facility brings tremendous economic benefits to the Town of Hamptonburgh and the County, including the creation of more than 160 new jobs," said Maureen Halahan, president and CEO of the Orange County Partnership.
