Greenyard Logistics USA hosted a grand opening celebration for its new logistics facility, in the Logan Township region of Swedesboro, New Jersey. The 152,200 square-foot facility is strategically positioned within close proximity of the North-eastern ports and marks the first building and expansion in the United States of Belgium-based parent company, Greenyard.
“We are excited to officially inaugurate this facility and celebrate its opening with all those who made this expansion possible,” said Mayda Sotomayor, managing director of Greenyard Logistics USA. VIP guests including members of Greenyard’s management team from Belgium, key retailers, growers, industry association leaders, local government officials and staff were in attendance of the event.
“I am very proud that we were able to open this new facility in New Jersey,” said Marleen Vaesen, CEO of Greenyard. “The US is a market of strategic importance for the group where we want to achieve growth, and opening this distribution center is a clear milestone in our growth plans.”
Guests were able to tour the facility and see highlights such as the 8,000 pallet positions, 30 dock doors and high-capacity packing lines, in action, with summer citrus product from Greenyard Logistics’ sister company Seald Sweet.
