Rivian Chooses Atlanta for East Coast Headquarters Creating Hundreds of Jobs and Boosting Local Economy

Electric vehicle startup Rivian announced on Thursday that it will establish its East Coast headquarters in Atlanta, planning to hire hundreds of employees as it prepares to break ground on its Georgia factory next year. The company signed a lease for 45,000 square feet of office space in the Junction Krog District, with plans to employ about 100 workers by the end of 2025 and expand to 500 by the end of next year. This investment marks a significant development for Rivian as it faces challenges, including changes to federal EV incentives, while aiming to support its ambitious growth and production plans.
