Tennessee-based Kenco, has more than 90 warehouses scattered across the continental U.S. and Canada. Now the 3PL firm said it plans to break ground on a new facility in Zeeland, Mich., for long-time customer Mead Johnson Nutrition.
The 230,000-square-foot warehouse will have 28 loading docks and 150 truck-trailer parking spots. This new facility will replace another nearby warehouse that Kenco has outgrown. Scannell Properties is developing the new warehouse. Construction could start as early as September and be completed by spring of 2016.
Kenco will use the new facility to handle distribution of the Mead Johnson Nutrition product line, which includes specialty formulas for infants. Kenco will carry out order fulfillment, reverse logistics, raw materials management, kitting, packaging, labeling and transportation.
