Amazon on Feb. 23 announced plans to expand its significant presence in Louisiana with a $12 billion investment to develop its first data center campuses in the state to support cloud computing and artificial intelligence.
Amazon already operates multiple facilities in Louisiana, including a 3-million-square-foot advanced robotics fulfillment center that opened in Shreveport in 2024, which employs more than 2,000 people. The online retailer operates four fulfillment and sorting centers and seven delivery stations in the state, while also managing 200 megawatts of solar power generation.
