Announced today by Governor Cooper’s office, retail giant Ross is bringing a large investment into Randolph County.

Along with a $450 million distribution center in Randleman will come more than 850 jobs.

This new campus will be partly funded by a state-provided Job Development Investment Grant.

“We are delighted to welcome Ross Stores to Randolph County,” said Governor Cooper. “Nationally recognized brands like Ross will appreciate the quality of life in North Carolina as well as the capability of our world-class workforce to help them grow and succeed.”
