Meyer Distributing Opens New Connecticut Cross-Dock

Meyer Distributing has opened a new cross-dock in Waterbury, Connecticut, the company announced.

The cross-dock will have a direct feed from Meyer’s Pennsylvania distribution hubs, the company said.

“We are focused on improving service in the Northeast this year,” said Jeff Braun, CEO of Meyer Distributing. “We will be adding several locations, adding more truck routes, and hiring more drivers to better service increasing demand. Our recent Albany, [New York] expansion has helped improve delivery times and consistency as well as frequency. The same will be the case for our [Connecticut] customers with this expansion.”

“Meyer has expanded inventories significantly in crash and collision parts in the last year,” said Jim Sherman, Meyer’s crash and collision category sales manager. “We are adding customers throughout this region at a fast clip as they look for alternate sources for hard-to-find products and volume movers alike. Look for us on the estimating systems or give our dedicated body shop sales team a call at 800.345.9487. Spanish customers can give us a ring at 866.662.2776. We also encourage customers to download our app and sign up online for instant access to inventory, orders and returns.”
