Employers
Renewal Logistics, a third-party fulfillment company that ships online orders and processes returns for fashion and consumer brands, has opened a 215,000-square-foot warehouse in McDonough and says the building will employ approximately 125 full-time workers, along with many part-time and associate workers.
The company held a ribbon-cutting with the Henry County Chamber of Commerce on Thursday, Oct. 29, at the facility at 200 Declaration Drive, according to the company’s event page, which billed the gathering as the opening of “our new home in McDonough.” A company announcement published Friday, Oct. 30, by Metro Atlanta CEO said the new building expands Renewal’s total warehouse footprint to approximately 700,000 square feet across its network.
What the jobs number does and does not say
The announcement gives the 125 figure as the number of full-time workers the warehouse will employ. It does not say how many of those positions are newly created and how many are filled by existing employees moving from other Renewal sites, and the company did not disclose wages or a hiring timeline. The event invitation’s description of the building as the company’s new home suggests at least part of the workforce is relocating, so the figure should not be read as 125 net new jobs.
Renewal’s website lists four locations: the McDonough building on Declaration Drive, a site on Baker’s Ferry Road SW in Atlanta, an office in Duluth and a facility in Woodland, California.
The company and the work
Courtney and Bryan Folk founded Renewal in 2013, according to the announcement, and the company now supports more than 150 fashion brands. It says it was named to the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of fast-growing private companies.
The work in a building like this one centers on direct-to-consumer order fulfillment, returns processing and inventory management. The company says it also handles business-to-business and marketplace fulfillment, electronic data interchange transactions for retailers, kitting and assembly, custom packaging and refurbishment. A core part of its pitch is processing returned merchandise and getting sellable items back into stock while they are still in season. On its website, the company advertises same-day shipping for direct-to-consumer orders placed by noon Eastern time.
“This new facility gives us the capacity to support more of those businesses while continuing to create opportunities for our team and our community,” Courtney Folk, the company’s chief executive and co-founder, said in the announcement.
Leonard Robinson, director of memberships at the Henry County Chamber of Commerce, said the company “is creating employment opportunities, expanding its operations and strengthening our local business community.”
Terrance Godfrey, a warehouse manager who said he has worked at the company for about two years, described a workplace where people “feel supported, trusted and encouraged to grow.”
For job seekers
Renewal did not publish a list of open positions alongside the announcement, and its website does not include a careers page. Workers interested in the McDonough site would need to contact the company directly for current openings, pay and schedules. The announcement did not mention any state or local incentives for the project.
