Stellantis announces $388M investment in Metro Detroit Megahub in Van Buren

Stellantis (STLA) announced a $388M investment to develop a state-of-the-art Metro Detroit Megahub in Van Buren Township, Michigan, further advancing the efficiency and sustainability of its Mopar service parts distribution network. The new facility, set to launch in 2027, will feature cutting-edge technology, including AutoStore automated storage and retrieval systems, ensuring a modern and safe working environment for employees. The AutoStore system uses compact robots that navigate tracks above a high-density grid of storage bins to retrieve parts and deliver them to workstations, where employees pack and process final shipments. The workforce for the Metro Detroit Megahub will consist of employees from the Center Line, Warren, Warren Sherwood and Milwaukee PDC locations, facilitating the transition for approximately 488 UAW-represented employees. Accordingly, the workforce from the Marysville location will transition to the Warren and Warren Sherwood PDC locations where they will operate until the full integration into the Megahub and the Warren Sherwood facility is final.
