NFI has acquired the West Coast operation of The Gilbert Company. It is the second acquisition NFI has made this year.


The purchase includes six facilities in California's Inland Empire, including four in Chino and one each in Santa Fe Springs and Mira Loma. With these additions, NFI's warehouse space in the region now totals seven million square feet including the company's existing Chino, Ontario and Perris, Calif., facilities. The company's North American warehouse space now tops 21 million square feet with the completion of the acquisition.

Customers of the newly expanded facilities include high-end apparel brands in the clothing and shoe retail sector and a number of prominent retailers.

NFI, headquartered in New Jersey with facilities and operations throughout North America, is one of the largest privately held integrated supply chain solutions providers in North America.
