FST Logistics, a leading provider of third-party logistics solutions, announced the opening of a new warehouse in Fort Worth, Texas. This expansion is vital to FST Logistics' strategic growth plan to enhance its network and better serve its customers across the U.S.
The new 383,930-square-foot facility will significantly increase FST Logistics' total storage capacity and enable the company to provide faster, more efficient supply chain solutions to its growing customer base in the southern U.S. region. As a temperature-controlled, full-service warehouse, the facility will also enhance FST's ability to meet the diverse needs of its clients.
"This is an exciting time for FST. Through strategic conversations and planning sessions with our customers, it became clear that expanding our operations outside the Midwest would benefit their supply chains tremendously,” said Zak Hancock, COO of FST Logistics. “This move allows us to mirror our Ohio operations in a secondary region, improving service, reducing costs, and supporting our customers' growth."
The Fort Worth facility offers several key benefits that will enhance FST Logistics' operations. Its strategic location within the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) area provides quick access to major highways and intermodal hubs, facilitating more efficient delivery and fulfillment services across the southern U.S.
Additionally, the Fort Worth area offers numerous supply chain advantages, such as being known as one of Texas's 32 foreign trade zones, which allows companies to process goods without U.S. customs involvement. The region also has excellent transportation networks, including nonstop flight access to 194 cities and a central location that provides easy access to major markets across the U.S.
