The warehouse has a capacity of over 2,000 pallet locations and is 37,500 sq ft. The warehouse was specially designed with extra eaves height to allow us to stack pallets much higher than we could in our previous warehouse. The racking was also designed in a narrow aisle configuration allowing for two extra aisles within the floor space. We also invested in special lifting trucks to operate in a narrow aisle environment.
