The second building will double the company’s footprint at its suburban Chicago headquarters and is scheduled to open in September 2020.
“Hub Group’s customer-focused approach has led to sustained, long-term growth, especially as we continue to innovate with technology to drive a smarter supply chain,” said David P. Yeager, Chairman and CEO of Hub Group. “We are pleased to take the next step forward in adding much-needed room for our growing number of employees.”
The building will accommodate up to 1,500 employees which will help Hub Group maintain its position in the North American intermodal supply chain solutions market and achieve its goal of going from $4 billion to $6 billion in revenue by 2022.
Hub Group says it places a high value on sustainability and the new building is designed to meet LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold Certification.
