SEKO cites re-shoring as cause for expansion in New York, Pennsylvania
CHICAGO's SEKO Logistics has expanding into two locations in the states of New York and Pennsylvania, reports New York's Air Cargo World."With the increase in re-shoring happening in Western New York and the resurgence of Pittsburgh as a medical and high-tech hub, our expansion has enabled us to recruit within our customs brokerage and warehouse operations," said chief operations officer Rick Lee.
SEKO recently moved into a new, 120,000-square foot warehouse that includes two-storeys of office space in Syracuse. The new location also includes 13 dock doors, 40-foot ceilings to accommodate automated storage systems and 10,000-square feet of cold storage space for pharmaceuticals and food storage.
"While some companies have pulled out, we're continuing to expand to give local customer service and account management," said Mr Lee.
The Syracuse facility is located in a Foreign Trade Zone and is within a few hours of other New York state facilities in Buffalo and Rochester.
The other new facility, in Pittsburgh, was opened to meet growing demand for SEKO's hybrid MedTec and Omni-channel fulfilment operations.
The new 30,000-square foot structure triples the size of SEKO's previous facility in the region and is located near Pittsburgh's growing medical technology manufacturing sector.
The north eastern of North America offers access to a wide range of industries, including the medical, automotive, industrial and high-technology businesses that need logistics services, he said.
