Rivian to Open East Coast Headquarters on Atlanta Beltline - Atlanta ...

FULTON COUNTY, GEORGIA, JUL 17 – Rivian plans a 500-employee office near its new 7,500-person manufacturing plant and will expand partnerships with Georgia educational and state institutions, officials said.

  • Electric vehicle manufacturer Rivian revealed plans to open its East Coast headquarters in Atlanta in 2025, occupying office space on the top floor of a building near the Eastside Beltline Trail and close to Krog Street Market.
  • In late 2024, Rivian obtained federal financing totaling $6.6 billion to resume construction of its previously delayed $5 billion megasite located east of Atlanta in Morgan County.
  • The megasite covers roughly 2,000 acres along I-20, with grading and utility installation underway, and is planned to begin construction in 2026 with vehicle production by 2028.
  • The state and local governments offered an estimated $1.5 billion incentive package to Rivian for the factory, which is expected to employ about 7,500 workers, while the Atlanta office will start with 100 employees and grow to 500.
  • Rivian's CEO RJ Scaringe expressed excitement about the Atlanta office supporting its growth and partnerships in Georgia, while local leaders hailed the development as advancing EV innovation despite environmental concerns and criticism of federal loan approval.
