NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A Washington-based logistics company has decided to open its first facility in Robertson County and create nearly two dozen new jobs in White House.

Tennessee Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bill Hagerty announced this week that the expansion by ProPack is estimated at $1 million and is expected to create 22 new jobs.

The third-party logistics company specializes in order fulfillment and freight forwarding services.

State officials say the company chose White House because of its central location and access to many of the major markets.

White House City Administrator Gerald Herman says the mayor is seeking to create 1,000 new jobs in his first time.

Herman says the new jobs expected to be created by ProPack will help that goal.
