“Our focus is on providing logistics services that help CPG suppliers optimize their supply chains and master the middle mile in a time of unprecedented online shopping and direct-to-consumer distribution,” said Kevin Williamson, CEO. “Our new, state-of-the-art facility will operate 22 hours per day, six days a week to ensure that we continue delivering the highest levels of service to our customers. Importantly, this expansion also creates 250-275 new warehouse jobs during a critical time.” The new facility promotes supply chain sustainability with LED and motion-activated lighting, as well as battery-powered equipment. The warehouse also received its AIB certification with a high score of 980/1,000.
