MaxLite to Relocate HQ & Improve Distribution Efficiencies
July 25, 2022
Lighting manufacturer MaxLite has announced plans to relocate its headquarters in the fall to a single office in Montville, New Jersey.
The new headquarters will consolidate existing facilities in West Caldwell, N.J. and feature a large state-of-the-art training center and showroom that will provide better space for representatives and customers to learn more about MaxLite’s extensive lighting portfolio, including its award-winning c-Max line of controls and M-Series outdoor products.
“This move will bring our teams together, foster greater collaboration and innovation, and strengthen our Ease of Doing Business approach,” said Spencer Bolgard, MaxLite’s President & CEO.
The move is part of a continued plan to increase the company’s efficiencies and deliver world-class service across North America. As part of the headquarters relocation, MaxLite will also be shifting its New Jersey warehouse operations to a new state-of-the-art facility in Greenwood, Indiana as previously announced here. Opened in March, the distribution center has significantly improved service and delivery to customers in the Central region and will now service territories previously handled by the New Jersey center.
The energy-efficient Indiana distribution center maintains robust stock levels and supports deliveries to customers throughout the continental U.S. in three days or less. The shift to Indiana will minimize multiple shipments across distribution centers, improving order fill rates and service levels. This facility will also support quick-ship orders and opportunities throughout the Northeast. At the same time, MaxLite plans to offer local availability of its top-selling items in the Northeast.
“We’re pleased to capitalize on the efficiencies gained by doubling the size of our distribution center in Indiana earlier this year. Consolidating warehouse operations in Indiana will drive better service, higher value, and faster delivery for our customers,” said Brendan Drew, Senior VP/Operations & Supply Chain.
Both initiatives are in line with MaxLite’s expansion efforts and in keeping with the company’s Ease of Doing Business approach.
