Providence, Rhode Island-based United Natural Foods has opened a 125,000-square-foot refrigerated distribution center in Londonderry, New Hampshire. The facility will expand the company’s overall capacity and ability to deliver a selection of products to support customer growth across the northeast.
The addition of the Londonderry facility will help UNFI expand its refrigerated capacity, relieving pressure at its Chesterfield, New Hampshire, and Dayville, Connecticut, distribution centers and help facilitate customer growth across the New England market.
UNFI continues to expand its distribution center network in its efforts to create an optimized, expansive and food supply network, delivering for customers a robust national, regional and local supplier portfolio. The facility completed its first outbound shipments to UNFI customers on Oct. 3.
“The New England region is a vital and thriving marketplace and the opening of our new Londonderry facility acts as a complement to our other regional distribution centers enhancing our ability to deliver improved service levels for our customers,” said Mark Bushway, chief supply chain officer. “Londonderry strengthens our supply chain and helps deliver UNFI’s differentiated value proposition that helps our customers grow and thrive.”
The distributor has order selector and Class A driver job opportunities available at the Londonderry facility, as well as across its entire network of 57 distribution centers. Interested candidates can apply at unfi.com/careers-home.
