SanMar to Build New Distribution Center

SanMar, Seattle, has announced plans to build a 580,000 sq. ft. distribution center in Irving, Texas. The warehouse will support continual enhancements in the company’s one-day delivery service across 11 central states. Groundbreaking for the facility is scheduled for Fall 2007.

“SanMar promises the deepest on-hand inventory in the industry,” noted Jordan Lott, vice president. “Our national distribution network and advanced delivery service are designed to earn our customers’ confidence. This move into a larger, company-owned space is a recognition of our growth, but also our customers’ needs for more product that is readily available.”
