Sears Outlet opens an RDC in Reno

Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. has opened a new Sears Outlet Repair and Distribution Center (ORDC) in Reno.

Sears ORDCs repair and repackage gently-used and lightly-damaged major home appliances, lawn & garden products and fitness products. After they're tested, repaired, and at times refurbished, the products are sent to a network of stores to be sold at discounted prices.

Currently, the Reno Sears ORDC supports eight stores located in California, Idaho and Nevada.

“Reno was an ideal, centrally located market for us to open a new Sears Outlet Repair and Distribution Center,” said Michael Lesso, Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc.’s Director of Distribution. “These centers are key to the success of our Sears Outlet Stores. Customers purchasing a Certified Appliance or other item from a Sears Outlet Store receive a fully functional and operational unit, as well as the assurance that the unit still meets Sears’ quality standards as the nation's leading retailer of appliances and appliance-related products. Our new center in Reno will be key in delivering on this promise.”
