This brings the company's total distribution Chicago-area to 565,000 square feet. The living room, dining room and bedroom supplier had an existing 265,000-square-foot facilty in Bensenville; and this second location will serve to augment in the increase in demand from national furniture retailers, online stores and interior designers.
“We have strategically located our distribution centers in the Midwest to take advantage of the great railway and highway systems around Chicago. We can deliver furniture to the coasts within a few days,” Haowei Shen, CEO of Wholesale Interiors/Baxton Studio said. “Opening the new warehouse will allow us to stock each of our products deeper and to offer new lines over the next few years.”
Customers will start shipping from the new warehouse immediately. The warehouse will primarily stock the bedroom, dining room and outdoor furniture category.
The new warehouse will add up to an additional 50 new employees by mid 2015.
