FleetPride announced the opening of its new 150,000 sq. ft. regional distribution center in Lawrenceville, Ga. Located at 2406 Tech Center Parkway, this regional distribution center will service the heavy-duty transportation market in the southeastern U.S.
Lawrenceville’s inventory includes more than 40,000 SKUs and reflects the demand of FleetPride’s regional customer base. In addition to the parts inventory, the new regional distribution center also will offer kitting and light packaging.
“FleetPride chose this location because it allows for overnight delivery service to over 50 branch locations in the southeast region. Lawrenceville is FleetPride’s fourth distribution center in the U.S., and it is another significant move to expand and streamline FleetPride’s national heavy-duty truck and trailer parts logistics network,” explains Robert Lindley, FleetPride’s vice president of Supply Chain.
“FleetPride’s four regional distribution centers are strategically located in high-volume areas for the heavy-duty transportation industry, which allow us to improve customer service and support our continued growth,” says Brian Chupp, director of FleetPride’s Supply Chain Operations.
The Lawrenceville regional distribution center will be led by industry veteran Rudy Molina. As warehouse manager, Molina will oversee a team of 25 employees.
