We’re Expanding our Frozen Food Consolidation and National Distribution

Phase 3 expansion of our temperature-controlled Chicago Consolidation Center is underway. This third expansion in five years will provide more space for our growing Velocities Multi-Vendor Consolidation program, a solution for food manufacturers who need to consolidate multiple SKU frozen food orders shipping to major retail, wholesale, and foodservice DCs throughout the US.

The 100,000 sq. ft. expansion, slated for completion in the third quarter of 2013, will feature energy saving LED lighting, 12,000 new pallet positions and swing-in dock doors for more efficient loading times and increased food security. The Chicago Consolidation Center is increasing to 11,000,000 cu. ft. devoted to high-volume throughput, including -20F ice cream space, flexible racking for quick-pick consolidation, and refrigerated cross-dock staging for temperature-controlled food products. The Hanson Transportation Management Services and refrigerated truck fleet provides inbound, shuttle service and nationwide truckload and less-than-truckload service. Velocities™ Multi-Vendor Consolidation program encompasses Walmart’s Vendor Pool 391, with scheduled vendor-shared truckloads to all major retail, wholesale and foodservice distribution centers throughout the US.
