Amazon is not going anywhere in Austell. The e-commerce giant has renewed the lease on a major distribution hub in suburban Atlanta, keeping operations in place at the Factory Shoals Logistics Center and locking in its footprint along I-20 West. The site helps feed local deliveries and regional distribution across metro Atlanta.
According to CoStar, Amazon extended its lease at 7520 Factory Shoals Road and remains the tenant at the Factory Shoals Logistics Center. The listing also identifies BlueRidge Real Estate Partners principals Jack Sallis and Nick Peacher as local contacts tied to the asset.
What the building offers
The LoopNet listing lays out the site's logistics fit, including dock-high doors, an ESFR sprinkler system, deep truck courts and clear heights, and highlights the property's short drives to I-20 and I-285. Those features make the facility suited for last-mile fulfillment and regional distribution in metro Atlanta.
Owner and management
Marketing materials and availability reports show Link Logistics Real Estate associated with Factory Shoals, reflecting the firm's role operating infill industrial buildings across Atlanta. That operator profile aligns with the site's use by national e-commerce occupiers and their delivery partners.
Market context
The renewal comes as Atlanta's industrial market began to rebalance in early 2026. CBRE reported roughly 4.5 million square feet of net absorption in Q1 and said the direct vacancy rate declined to about 7.5 percent. Per CBRE's Q1 2026 report, that improvement reflects renewed bulk tenant engagement even as new supply continues to be delivered.
What it means locally
Site listings and local recruitment pages identify the Austell location as Amazon's HAT2 hub. Per Warehouse Ninja, it functions as a local sortation and fulfillment point used by delivery service partners, which suggests the renewal helps preserve last-mile operations in Cobb County. Keeping an anchor occupier in place at this I-20 West infill site matters to contract drivers, vendors and small suppliers that feed the hub.
