Linking the cold chain down South
Vertical Cold Storage has purchased a new 37,161 sqm facility in Burleson, Texas, thus expanding its network and portfolio of cold chain real estate. It will be the company’s second site in the Dallas-Forth Worth market and employ 70 full-time team members.
Located adjacent to the I-35 highway, the hub provides connectivity to road transport routes. As the company specialises in temperature-controlled hubs, it is equipping this new distribution centre with rooms convertible to -20°F.
“Burleson leverages our integrated IT platform, standard processes, automated material handling equipment, and AI technology to ensure safe and efficient operations for our customers and associates,” said West Hutchison, president and CEO of Vertical Cold Storage. (mk)
