ELKRIDGE, Md. — The DHL distribution center in Elkridge will be closing down and relocating in February 2024.

Officials tell WMAR that the move to Manassas, Virginia will help better serve customers as they will have a larger distribution center to help them process more volume.

"This new building will better position us to support our strong customer base in Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic states," a representative from the company said.

With the move, 120 employees will be affected.

A representative said that the employees were given an advanced notice and would be offered the opportunity to relocate or the benefit of a retention package for maintaining employment with the company up until the last week in February.
