Cardone’s $50 million distribution facility that would have brought more than 500 jobs to Harlingen and lavished tens of millions of dollars more in wages on workers during the next decade is on indefinite hold.
Executives with Cardone Industries Inc., which has a warehouse in Harlingen, one in Brownsville and a brake manufacturing facility in Matamoros, Mexico, informed city officials that due to “internal issues” within the company, the new Harlingen mega-warehouse will not be built this year.
Existing Cardone facilities in Cameron County and in Mexico will remain operational, city officials said Wednesday night.
