Electric Supply Center to open a 135,000 s/f central distribution center in Woburn

Electric Supply Center (ESC), one of the regions leading distributors of electrical equipment and supplies, will be opening a central distribution center (CDC). ESC has experienced significant growth over the past few years and in order to accommodate demand, this spring ESC will be opening a 135,000 s/f CDC at 205 Wildwood Ave., the CDC will be the hub of all delivery orders, receiving, and will call. While all other branches will remain fully functioning, the CDC will allow for a larger array of product and the ability to serve a great deal more customers. "The growth we've seen as a company is a direct result of the hard work and dedication the staff has put into ESC," said ESC president, Larry LaFreniere. "Over the past two years we have doubled in size and our customer base has expanded all across New England." The CDC will offer 12 loading dock doors and a pick up area. All deliveries will be received and shipped from the 205 Wildwood location, including same day, early morning and late nights. "When looking for a location, we wanted to make sure that we were conveniently located near both 93 and 128, which made Woburn an ideal spot," said LaFreniere. "Opening the CDC will allow us to focus on our delivery service and bringing in more of the products our customers need." ESC is an independently owned and operated distributor of electrical equipment and supplies. ESC has transformed into a model of efficiency, becoming the preferred distribution center amongst electrical contractors. Headquartered in Burlington, Mass. with a sales office in Mansfield and additional warehouse facilities in Wakefield and Gloucester, ESC constantly re-invests in technology, facilities and training to better manage, store and deliver products to clients.
