Cali opened a new state-of-the-art distribution center in Tacoma, Washington, to expedite the delivery of flooring, composite decking, turf, and other home design products to the Pacific Northwest.
Located at the Port of Tacoma, the new 50,000-square-foot facility began operations in July and is situated to receive shipping containers and maximize the company's reach. The company said the location allows for significantly reduced lead times, with the ability to deliver products within 24 hours to the Pacific Northwest, compared to the previous five- to six-day lead time. The center will also support expanded service into Canada, enhancing service for Canadian retailers and growing the market in the Great White North.
“This new facility is a game-changer for Cali and our customers,” said Cali COO Eugene Garcia. “We can now offer will-call pick-ups, container-direct service, and last-mile delivery – if you order today and are within a 100-mile radius, you’ll receive your product the next day. This new space truly allows us to do everything.”
The new distribution center is not only a logistical hub but also a step forward in operational efficiency. By streamlining processes, Cali can reduce freight costs, passing these savings on to customers and partners. This facility and Cali's three other distribution centers in Colton, California; Fort Worth, Texas; and Summerville, South Carolina; ensure that Cali is within a two-day reach of any customer in the contiguous United States.
