Weber Logistics Expands In Stockton, California

Weber Logistics, a leading third party logistics and supply chain management provider, announced today that it has expanded in Stockton, California, the key hub location for Northern California.

Weber's Stockton facility has added 155,000 square feet to its location for a total of 208,000 square feet with over 12,000 racked positions.

The facility is divided into temperature-controlled and dry storage and offers LTL, truckload, storage and value-added services such as order processing, label generation, inventory control, routing guide compliance, and pick & pack. This includes distribution for all of Northern California, as well as Nevada ranging from Fresno to Redding and San Francisco to Reno. Weber is servicing food, confectionary, beverage, CPG and retail companies from its Stockton facility, some of which include a herbal cough/cold company and a large supplier to major grocery chains.

The advantage of the facility is rail and surface transportation for import containers and product, along with local access to the surface infrastructure throughout California and the Western States. Located between the 99 and the main West Coast Interstate I-5, the City of Stockton is one of California's fastest growing cities. Stockton is 60 miles east of the San Francisco Bay Area, 83 miles east of San Francisco, and 45 miles south of Sacramento.

"Stockton is a great location in Northern California to grow our business and service the needs of our customers," said Marc Levin, Weber's senior vice president, client solutions. "From our facility we can easily access the north, east, west and south directions, which is why we will continue to expand our logistics operations in Stockton with more warehousing space, trucks and services."
