SHEIN celebrated the launch of a 737,000‑square‑foot automated distribution facility in Lebanon, featuring a goods‑to‑person fulfillment system designed to bolster the company’s fulfillment capabilities. The new building sits about 1.5 miles from SHEIN’s existing Indiana operations and expands the company’s total Indiana space to in excess of 2.5 million square feet.

SHEIN reported it currently employs more than 1,300 Hoosiers and said the Lebanon site will create hundreds of additional roles as operations expand. The company announced community contributions tied to the opening, including $3,000 to the Boone County Chamber of Commerce and $2,500 to the Boone County Economic Development Corporation, and noted recent charitable support for local flood relief and United Way recovery efforts.
