SANTA FE SPRINGS, CA, July 8, 2021 – Third-party logistics provider Weber Logistics (www.weberlogistics.com) has secured a 406,710-square-foot omni-channel distribution center (DC) in San Bernardino, CA. This newly constructed multi-client facility – Weber’s largest – is the company’s sixth DC in Southern California’s Inland Empire region and thirteenth DC within California.

The San Bernardino facility is being strategically developed for omni-channel retail distribution and includes automated pack/ship infrastructure investments that support the processing of over 18,000 packages per day. 


The company’s distribution center footprint in the Inland Empire is now nearly 2 million square feet – reflecting an expansion of 63% in the last two years within this key distribution region. 

The operation will be staffed initially with a team of 40 new employees, with more hiring expected as eCommerce fulfillment volumes grow. 

Weber has committed half the building to an existing growing client. The remaining space is ideal for consumer goods, food or apparel companies that require a West Coast omni-channel solution. 

Additional facility features include: 

 

• 65 dock doors and 2 grade-level loading doors 

• 40’-high ceilings 

• 238' fully secured truck court 

• Racked and bulked storage layouts 

• Close proximity to 210, 215, 10, and 60 freeways 

According to Bob Lilja, Weber Logistics Chief Executive Officer, “This new facility reflects the direction that our clients demand: high-volume, omni-channel fulfillment, with dense, flexible storage configurations and automated parcel handling in perhaps the country’s most sought-after distribution region.” 

The San Bernardino DC further expands Weber’s ability to provide integrated distribution services from the West Coast, which include drayage, warehousing, fulfillment, and transportation. As with every facility throughout Weber’s network, this DC will offer highly engineered value-added capabilities including kitting and assembly, rework, repacking, retail display builds, and other both traditional and innovative supply chain strategies.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
