Distribution Center Expansion
CTS Builders provided design and construction management services for a new $18M, 65,000 sq ft Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS)/low bay pick facility and renovation of the existing distribution center in Dallas, TX.
Client: National Food Service Distributor
Location: Dallas, TX
Services: Design Build, Construction Management
This project provided 35 new dock positions for the low bay pick area and the distribution center. Over 165 new truck and tractor parking spaces were created as well a 304 space parking lot for vehicles. A new 3-level conveyor bridge that connects the distribution center to the production plant was constructed as part of the project as well. This project was part of this National Food Service Distributor’s National Geographic Enterprise Solutions (GES) initiative. This initiative automates their distribution system by adding craned based palletized storage and also automatically assembles Frito-Lay product into store based orders for delivery. This approach increases productivity and reduces the amount of manual handling through out the supply chain.
