Houston-based retailer Conn’s HomePlus has announced the opening of the 656,658-square-foot, multistate logistics distribution center in Houston, establishing more advanced infrastructure as part of the company's overall growth and development plan.
The new distribution center will serve a greater number of stores, increasing support from 20 to 45, creating a footprint for future growth. Existing warehouses and service centers in the greater Houston area will be consolidated into this new building, which will be a multi-functional facility serving as a warehouse, distribution center, office, clearance center and product pickup facility.
"This new distribution center will allow us to streamline our efforts and better serve our customers throughout the surrounding Houston area," said Norm Miller, Conn's chairman and CEO. "Building on this momentum, Conn's HomePlus is committed to continued economic growth and expansion throughout our great home state of Texas."
In 2019, Conn's HomePlus has opened six showrooms in Texas, with plans to open an additional three in the state through the end of the year. The company currently employs approximately 3,100 employees in Texas and operates 133 retail locations across 14 states.
