Macy's to relocate US fulfillment centre

Published: 29-Jan-2015

The retailer is moving to a larger facility

Macy’s has announced plans to relocate its West Sacramento, CA, fulfillment centre to a larger facility at 3919 Channel Drive.

Macy’s will begin operations in the summer at the 385,000sqft facility, with the current workforce expected to grow from 72 to 175 after the move. The centre facilitates the retailer’s direct-to-consumer shipments.

Macy’s multi-million-dollar upgrade to the new fulfillment centre will include building modifications and the latest technology in material handling equipment and warehouse management systems.

“Our West Sacramento fulfillment centre, combined with our fulfillment centre in Goodyear, AZ, have been very successful in serving customers in the western United States. The rapid growth of Macy’s direct-to-customer shipments, rooted in our omnichannel approach to business, requires us to continue to strategically add fulfillment capacity so our customers can receive their orders quickly and efficiently. Customers today are shopping whenever, however and wherever they prefer – via stores, desktops and mobile devices – and we continue to invest to meet the customer demand,” said R.B. Harrison, Macy’s Chief Omnichannel Officer. “We are choosing to expand and invest in Sacramento County, based on the quality of the workforce and the outstanding support we have received from the local community.”
