Larson Constructing New Distribution Facility
A new 280,000-square-foot distribution facility is being built by Larson Manufacturing Co. Inc. in Albert Lea, Minn., according to a press report in the local newspaper.
Scheduled to be fully operation in January 2008, it replaces a current facility now being leased.
When the new facility was announced, Jeff Rief, the storm door manufacturer’s chief operating officer, told the Albert Lea Tribune that the city’s immediate access to both Interstates 35 and 90 made it a good location for them to store finished products and prepare them for shipment across the country.
Larson’s new facility will feature state-of-the-art handling equipment. Steve Wagner, the distribution center’s manager told the local paper that the new facility will incorporate an office staff of between 10 and 12 people, and the warehouse staff could include up to 75 people during the high point of the year.
Larson, which states it is the largest manufacturer of storm doors in the country, is based in Brookings, S.D.
