US-based specialty retailer Conn’s is expanding its operations with the opening of a 656,658ft2 multistate logistics distribution centre.
Located in Houston, Texas, the facility is part of the company’s overall growth and development strategy.
The multi-functional plant will serve as a warehouse, distribution centre, office, clearance centre and product pick-up facility.
Conn’s will use the facility to serve 20 to 45 stores while supporting future growth and impacting customer service and satisfaction.
The company also plans to integrate the operations of existing warehouses and service centres in the greater Houston area into the new facility.
Conn’s chair and CEO Norm Miller said: “This new distribution centre will allow us to streamline our efforts and better serve our customers throughout the surrounding Houston area.
