Tech giant Salesforce is strengthening its roots in the Atlanta area with a significant investment that promises to boost the local economy and create hundreds of high-quality job opportunities.
Salesforce, Inc., the San Francisco-based leader in customer relationship management (CRM) software and cloud-based solutions, will invest $15 million to expand its operations across Georgia.
Salesforce To Bring Jobs, $15 Million Expansion in Atlanta
The project is expected to create more than 250 new jobs in Fulton County by the end of 2028, according to an announcement originally made by Governor Brian P. Kemp in late 2025.
The expansion builds on Salesforce’s already substantial footprint in the state, where the company currently supports over 2,000 jobs.
Salesforce serves a wide range of Georgia customers across key industries, including financial services, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, logistics, and the public sector.
Company leaders have highlighted Atlanta’s talented workforce, global connectivity, and inclusive business environment as major factors driving the decision to grow here.
“This investment underscores Salesforce’s confidence in Metro Atlanta as a hub for innovation and talent,” said Katie Kirkpatrick, President and CEO of the Metro Atlanta Chamber. “These new positions will bring well-paying opportunities in technology and related fields, further solidifying our region’s position in the global tech economy.”
Fulton County officials echoed the enthusiasm. “Salesforce’s expansion is a win for Fulton County,” said Chairman Robb Pitts of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners. “This major investment in jobs demonstrates the confidence that globally premier companies have in our community. We are proud to welcome this growth and look forward to the opportunities it will bring to our residents and local economy.”
The announcement was supported by a collaborative effort involving the Georgia Department of Economic Development’s Global Commerce team, Invest Atlanta, Fulton County, the Metro Atlanta Chamber, and Georgia Power.
While specific details about the types of roles, exact locations within Fulton County (such as potential ties to existing offices in areas like Buckhead or Midtown), and timelines for hiring have not been fully disclosed, the new positions are anticipated to include a mix of software development, sales, customer success, and support functions aligned with Salesforce’s AI-powered platforms and cloud services.

As Atlanta continues to attract major corporate expansions in tech and related sectors, this move by Salesforce reinforces the city’s reputation as a growing destination for innovative companies.
