Webgistix Opens eCommerce Distribution Center in Las Vegas to Meet Growing Demand from Online Retailers
Las Vegas, NV, October 03, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Webgistix Corp., the leader in e-commerce order fulfillment, today announced the opening of a new distribution center in Las Vegas, Nevada, to support growing demand from e-commerce retailers who are increasingly outsourcing their order fulfillment. The new 30,000-square-foot facility is expandable to 100,000 square feet and will create more than 25 full-time positions by mid-2009.
The new facility is located at 881 Wigwam Parkway in Henderson, and is Webgistix’s first distribution center in the western United States. Webgistix currently has three distribution facilities in the eastern United States and one in Ireland to deliver fulfillment services for e-commerce retailers around the world. The new facility will focus on eRetailers whose order volume exceeds 1,000 shipments a month.
E-commerce retailers represent a rapidly growing market segment that requires outsourced fulfillment services. Internet Retailer Magazine expects online sales in the United States to grow to $1 trillion within the next ten years. In 2007, online retail sales in the U.S. reached $169.5 billion, an increase of 21.8 percent from a year earlier.
Unlike traditional fulfillment companies that process orders manually, Webgistix has developed a state-of-the-art software as a service (SaaS) solution that automates the entire fulfillment process. There is almost no human intervention, which improves order accuracy, reduces costs for retailers, and accelerates the delivery of merchandise to consumers.
“The Greater Las Vegas area boasts an increasingly diverse business community and we are pleased to see Webgistix expand its operations here,” said Chris Zuni, Vice President, Nevada Development Authority. “Webgistix is a fast-growing Internet company that needed a distribution center close to the services and talent pool that would help it attract the best employees and e-commerce retail customers. Within less than three months, we worked with Webgistix to establish and open its first western United States facility in Henderson.”
“Webgistix serves e-commerce businesses around the world that require speed, accuracy, and efficiency in fulfilling their online orders,” said Joseph DiSorbo, President, Webgistix Corporation. “Opening a new facility in Las Vegas allows us to serve e-commerce retailers with operations and sourcing in the western United States more quickly and efficiently.”
