Global transportation and logistics provider Suddath is preparing to open a new 132,000 moving and logistics facility in Miami, Fla.
The new facility will provide a wide range of commercial, logistics and home moving and storage services, including cross-docking, forwarding, consolidation, final mile delivery and distribution services.
"This new state-of-the-art facility will place a premium on security and customer convenience, directly benefiting businesses and residents throughout the Miami community," said Steve von Oetinger, vice president and general manager for Suddath Miami. "Suddath is dedicated to providing the most innovative services available in the industry, with a focus on meeting the unique needs of the local community as well as regional, national and global clients."
Serving as the second flagship site for Suddath, the new facility combines multiple service lines from two previous facilities into one. The investment in a new facility, in addition to the existing 11 facilities Suddath operates in Florida, is a sign of the company's ongoing commitment to the region and the market. This will enable Suddath to provide warehousing services for commercial products, hospitality furniture, fixtures and equipment, and household goods in Miami, as it has since 1952.
The center will also operate under food safety certifications and standards, which would be of benefit to any manufacturer or distributor seeking to serve one of the largest population centers in the region.
The Miami moving and logistics facility will feature 32-foot-high ceilings to accommodate items of all sizes and will provide maximum protection with 24/7 security and video surveillance. As part of Suddath's national network of warehouse operations, it will also utilize the HighJump system. This tier-1 warehouse management system improves customer service and provides heightened control and supply chain visibility of inventory, including real-time updates and notifications.
Located at 3880 West 104th Street in Hialeah, the new facility will expand Suddath's offerings by providing a convenient storage space near the Miami International and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International airports, Port Everglades and PortMiami for residents and businesses.
