The mid-August event
included a tour of the modern 229,000-sq.-ft. facility, which is
equipped with a warehouse management system, up-to-date scanning
technologies and new material-handling equipment. The center is
designed to optimize distribution of Watts' extensive line of
plumbing products for residential, commercial and industrial
markets.
The facility tour was followed by a barbecue, where visitors had
a chance to socialize and learn first-hand how Watts and
Disney-McLane support their customers with a wide range of
plumbing and heating solutions, training, local inventory and
field support.
"We appreciated the opportunity to share some time with our
customers and demonstrate the exceptional support we can provide
them," said Craig Cumberledge,
principal at Disney-McLane. "A tour of the Watts Distribution
Center in Groveport showed them the equipment and capabilities
that enable us to ensure prompt delivery."
Patrick Bian, Watts director, supply chain management, added:
"We believe the Groveport location is ideal for our newest
distribution center. We can take advantage of the region's
ultra-modern interstate highway system. In addition it is
outside the Snow Belt and the Tornado Zone, minimizing the risk
of transportation slowdowns that weather conditions can cause.
Together those advantages enhance our ability to ship
efficiently to more locations and provide customers the products
they need, when they need them."
