Penske Logistics has opened a new 110,000-square-foot distribution center in Manaus, Brazil.
"Opening a warehouse in Manaus is an important part of Penske's long-term strategic growth in Brazil," said Bill Scroggie, managing director, Penske Logistics Brazil. "Operating near an important industrial free trade zone, Penske will be able to provide much-needed warehousing services to manufacturers in the region."
Penske Logistics Brazil will store and ship Whirlpool brand air conditioners and microwaves to the company's retail customers throughout Brazil. It is Penske's first time operating in Manaus, but the company already has 16 locations throughout South America, including Brazil.
Penske performs warehousing, sequencing, inbound and outbound transportation services across Whirlpool product lines in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Brazil.
