(Des Moines, IA) -- Central Iowa has seen a large increase in the number of warehouse jobs in the past three years.

A report by Axios says Des Moines’ warehouse and “Amazon-type shipping jobs” market share has risen by twenty-six percent since February of 2019. That’s a spike compared to the overall Iowa increase of three-percent in the market share of warehouse jobs.

The report says something that has helped attract shipping and transportation jobs to the area is the Des Moines junction of two major interstates: eighty and thirty-five.
