Urban Outfitters, Inc. (the "Company," "us," or "our") announced plans to build a new 880,000 square-foot omni-channel distribution center (the “Facility”) on ancillary land at Kansas Speedway in Wyandotte County, Kansas.

The Company worked with the Kansas Department of Commerce, KC SmartPort, the Kansas City Area Development Council, the Wyandotte County Economic Development Council and Unified Government of Wyandotte County in selecting a location for the Facility.
