STACK Infrastructure Advances Amazon-Backed Louisiana Data Center While Deepening Sustainability Push

STACK Infrastructure is the focus of this weekly recap, which highlights recent developments in its U.S. expansion and evolving sustainability strategy. The company advanced a major data center project in Caddo Parish, Louisiana, in partnership with Amazon, while also underscoring environmental and community initiatives in key growth markets.

In Louisiana, STACK and Amazon are moving ahead with site work for a new data center–related development, supported by strong engagement from local and state vendors. The project is framed as a meaningful regional investment expected to drive economic growth, create high-quality jobs, and deliver long-term value to the Caddo Parish community.

STACK’s general contractor is actively aligning vendor capabilities with project requirements and directing interested firms to register through a dedicated project website. This structured procurement process is designed to manage execution risk, improve cost visibility, and coordinate a broad supply chain for a large-scale hyperscale build.

To deepen the local vendor base, STACK and Amazon are hosting a Contractor and Vendor Expo on May 13 at the Shreveport Convention Center, offering project updates, bid briefings, and networking with construction teams. Additional events are planned in the coming weeks to clarify procurement timelines, mobilization plans, and near-term priorities for subcontractors and suppliers.

These efforts position STACK as a key development partner for hyperscale and cloud data center projects, potentially enhancing its appeal to major cloud providers seeking reliable, large-scale capacity. The collaboration with Amazon reinforces STACK’s strategy of aligning with leading technology companies to drive recurring revenue from long-term infrastructure deployments.

Beyond project execution, STACK is emphasizing sustainability through the work of Global Head of Sustainability Bethany Brantley, who was recently featured in RBC Capital Markets’ Pathfinders in Sustainability series. Her commentary highlights the need for capital, community, and collaboration to scale sustainable digital infrastructure and deliver measurable carbon impact across the company’s portfolio.

STACK is also expanding its social impact footprint in Australia via a yearlong partnership with education charity The Smith Family. Since July 2025, the company has contributed more than $50,000 to support 180 students through the Learning for Life program and engaged employees in mock interviews and speed mentoring, with plans to extend the partnership into 2026.

These environmental and community-focused initiatives may enhance STACK’s brand and stakeholder relationships, particularly with ESG-conscious customers and investors. Overall, the week’s news portrays STACK Infrastructure as simultaneously advancing a high-profile U.S. data center project with Amazon and deepening its sustainability and community investment agenda, supporting its long-term positioning in global digital infrastructure markets.
