Woodman’s Markets Gets up to Speed with Rite-Hite’s High-Speed Cooler/Freezer Doors
Woodman's Markets is an employee-owned supermarket chain with 15 locations from metro Chicago to Green Bay, Wis. One of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing independent supermarkets, Woodman's stores are large warehouse-style facilities ranging from 200-250,000 square feet in size—some 3-4 times the size of typical grocery stores. In addition to on-site warehousing, these retail facilities are served by two distribution centers, including a 230,000-square-foot warehouse in Beloit, Wis.
To keep up with rapid growth, Woodman’s added several warehouse-style retail locations and upgraded its in-store warehouses. It also recently expanded the Beloit warehouse.
