Hammond Power Solutions (HPS) opened a new warehouse in Reno, Nev., Jan. 13. The new facility replaces the existing warehouse in Compton, Calif., with plant operations in Compton being unaffected.
The new warehouse will better accommodate HPS’ growing product sales and provide improved shipping lead-time in select regions. The Reno warehouse is triple the size of the Compton facility at 36,000 square feet, and it will house an expanded number of product SKUs.
“The investment in this new facility is part of a broader plan to evolve our operations and customer service,” Larry Bell, director of Supply Chain, said in a statement. “Since the facility is within close proximity to major consumption centers on the West Coast, we expect lead times to be reduced to one-two days for stocked products in select regions."
The new warehouse facility will be managed by experienced personnel from Baraboo, Wisc., ensuring an orderly transition for our customers.
