We are also seeing a strong demand from the international business community for U.S.-based distribution centers.”
What’s new at your company and are you planning any major changes in the coming years?
“We are excited to have completed the conversion to our new warehouse management system in 2023 and to have expanded into our third warehouse facility in 2024.”
