The plans also include the addition of ten new full-time paying jobs that will pay $18.75/hour, according to UPS. 

The company also said it would retain the 234 current full-time jobs in El Paso. The average wage for those existing full-time jobs is $35 per hour.​

El Paso City Council approved a tax incentives package that gives the company about $1.8 million in property tax rebates, construction materials sales tax rebates and building construction fee rebates.

"UPS' expansion and state-of-the-art facility near the airport speaks to the strategic growth our community is experiencing," El Paso Mayor Dee Margo said in a statement.
