to that, we are supplying our customers with any consumable they might need in their production process – and beyond, for maintenance and repair operations, service technicians and other applications in the field. We consequently pair all our product offerings with tailored physical and digital solutions to streamline our customers’ supply chain, ensure product availability and give them full visibility and control over their spend.”
As part of its expansion journey across North America, Würth Industry has invested substantially over the years in creating a reliable distribution network, a commitment to enabling faster service, further increasing product availability, and delivering best in class processes for its customers nationwide.
“ We recently acquired a 472,000-squarefoot facility in Columbus, Ohio. This $ 42-million investment offers us a strategic advantage for expansion, with a central location, infrastructure, and access to skilled workforce,” Bastian confirms.
“ Beyond this, there is 500,000 square feet of expansion space which we plan to build onto, as either extra distribution or office space, as we outgrow the existing space. We’ re excited about what the Columbus, Ohio area offers us, especially given that it’ s a university town with access to a great labor market and talented individuals that have recently graduated. Most importantly, for our customers, this means further improvements to our service levels, as well as additional breadth and depth in our standard product range.”
Commenting on the company’ s relationship with the wider Würth Group, Bastian adds:“ We’ re truly a family-run business with a flat hierarchy and open lines of communication, which makes a strategic investment decision like the one in Columbus possible on a short turnaround. Moreso than short term KPIs, we are focused on developing and executing longer-term strategies, looking at the next four-to-five
