KERNERSVILLE, N.C. -- FedEx Ground officials expect a distribution hub opening next year in North Carolina to expand to more than 1,200 employees and part-time workers in the next decade.

The News & Record of Greensboro reported Thursday the company expects the Kernersville sorting hub to expand steadily from the 750 workers who will open it in September 2011.

Company officials say the building is almost finished and sorting equipment will be installed beginning in June.

FedEx began operating an air cargo hub at Piedmont Triad International Airport last summer. The separate FedEx Ground distribution center expands and consolidates two Winston-Salem facilities.
