PPG eyes new DC
A 450,000 sq. ft. facility is coming to Flower Mound, Texas, next year.
In Flower Mound, Texas, PPG is building its biggest distribution center yet – at least the biggest in its U.S. and Canada network. It should be completed and ready to serve national accounts, company stores and independent retailers across the U.S. in May 2019
The nearly 450,000-sq.-ft. facility, which will be constructed and leased through Duke Realty.
“PPG is incredibly proud to announce the Flower Mound distribution center project in this important market,” said Dave Cole, PPG VP, architectural coatings, U.S. and Canada. “The new facility will continue to grow the presence of PPG in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and allow for even greater efficiency in serving our customers in the Southwest U.S. region.”
The company recently invested some $9 million to open 14 stores in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, bringing the total to nearly 40 PPG Paints stores in the region. PPG’s architectural coatings business employs nearly 900 people in Texas, and the company also supports local industry-relevant science, technology, engineering and math training and education initiatives through the PPG Foundation. PPG recently partnered with the Regional Hispanic Contractors Association to support the advancement and economic growth of Hispanic contractors in Texas.
Pittsburgh-based PPG operates in more than 70 countries and reported net sales of $14.8 billion in 2017.
Its distribution network includes more than 15,000 touchpoints through company-owned stores, independent dealer locations and all major home improvement centers across the U.S. and Canada.
