Odyssey Logistics, a global leader in logistics and technology, has officially relocated its headquarters to Charlotte, further expanding its footprint in the region. The company celebrated the move with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Whitehall Corporate Center.
Owned by private equity firm The Jordan Group, Odyssey employs over 2,000 people across 82 locations worldwide.
The relocation adds 80 high-paying jobs to Charlotte, with an average salary of $111,000, bringing the company’s total local workforce to 155.
“Our new home in Charlotte is a mutually beneficial development both for our organization and for the North Carolina business community, a region that is ideal for Odyssey as we embark on our next chapter of growth,” said Odyssey CEO Hans Stig Moller in a press release. “Charlotte connects Odyssey with a strong talent pool, which continues to grow thanks to the city’s quality of life. Our new location also provides updated facilities and convenient proximity to a key international airport and our clients.”
Charlotte’s growing transportation infrastructure—including four major interstates, 800 miles of rail, and the world’s sixth-busiest airport—played a key role in attracting Odyssey.
The project was a collaboration between the city, Mecklenburg County, and the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina.
