Quirch Foods, based in Miami FL, recently opened a sixth distribution center in Greensboro NC.
The company said the expansion is essential to growth as it seeks to continue expanding and leveraging its distribution reach. Currently operating with five distribution centers located throughout the Southeast and Caribbean, the sixth facility was expected to begin operations in early March.
The addition of this warehouse facility extends Quirch’s reach, and ability to service independent and national supermarkets in and around the Carolinas and northward.
“We continue to look for opportunities to expand our reach and find strategic locations, which will facilitate a well-executed distribution,” said Frank Grande, president of Quirch. “The facility in Greensboro does just that.
“Alongside the continued growth of the independent grocer and the food industry in general, we feel that this distribution center will be a great complement to our complete distribution network.”
Quirch Foods, founded in 1967, is a food distribution company servicing large and independent retailers across the US, Caribbean, and Central and South America. The company operates six distribution facilities with more than 700,000 square feet of combined refrigerated warehouse space and a fleet of more than 120 refrigerated trucks.
