The Home Depot opens new direct fulfilment centre
The Home Depot has opened the third and largest of its three new direct fulfilment centres that will support its online sales. The new 1.6 million square foot facility is located in Troy Township, Ohio and is expected to eventually employ 500.
The company opened two other direct fulfilment centres last year: one in Locust Grove, Georgia, just outside Atlanta; and another in Perris, California.
These new facilities enable the company to deliver 90% of Home Depot online orders of regionally stocked parcel items in two business days or less using ground delivery service.
