Marcone celebrated the opening of an expanded regional distribution center in Calgary. Located at 4152 27th St. Northeast, the larger center boasts 48,000 square feet of warehouse space. The move allows Marcone to ensure delivery to 90% of the Canadian population with next-day ground service.
“Our new Calgary location represents Marcone’s commitment to fast delivery of our exceptional parts selection throughout Canada,” said Avichal Jain, Chief Executive Officer of Marcone. “Our unique catalog of products represents an offering unlike any other in the marketplace, and now we have the infrastructure in place to provide next-day delivery options to most of Western Canada.”
Almost 100 customers and vendors toured the new center today, receiving Marcone swag, including hats, pens, notepads and mugs, in celebration of Marcone’s home run with its new distribution center.
“We certainly share in the excitement our customers expressed to our team during the open house,” said Peter Szachlewicz, President of Marcone in Canada. “We look forward to providing them with faster delivery times that ultimately will allow them to improve the service they offer their customers.”
Marcone’s Canadian operations include distribution of home appliance and commercial kitchen parts nationwide. Its Canadian inventory features leading OEM brands such as Whirlpool, Electrolux, Bosch, Garland and Hobart.
The Marcone experience in Canada includes best-in-class customer service with EDI programming, a user-friendly ecommerce site and a robust call center with bilingual national coverage.
