PANAMA CITY, FLA. (WMBB) — FedEx has chosen to build its new facility in Panama City. At a Thursday morning grand opening ceremony at the new FedEx Ground site on Commerce Boulevard local leaders said they are anticipating major job growth. “The initial phase, first phase, there’ll be over 200 jobs and as you see from the footprint of the building, there’s room for expansion,” Bay Economic Development Alliance President Becca Hardin said. “So as the company grows and continues to provide service to the customers in this area, they will continue to grow on this side as well.”
