Camrett Logistics Expands Dublin, Virginia, Multi-Use Warehouse Complex
10/25/2023
The investment will include new construction, renovating existing space, and the purchase of new forklifts and new 100% electric trucks.
“Camrett Logistics is a leader in providing world-class supply chain services every day in Southwest Virginia, and our growth is because of our great employees/family members, customers, and partners,” said Cameron Peel, President. “This long overdue expansion will help revitalize an iconic World War II facility into a multi-use warehouse and usher the company into its new era as green supply chain experts. With four electric trucks, two electric spotters, a brand-new electric forklift fleet, and motion sensor-activated LED warehouse lights, we are focused on sustainability, and the future, for the generations to come.”
The Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP) worked with Pulaski County and the Town of Dublin to secure the project. Governor Youngkin approved a $230,000 grant from the Commonwealth’s Opportunity Fund to assist Pulaski County with the project. Funding and services to support the company’s employee training activities will be provided through the Virginia Jobs Investment Program.
“Camrett Logistics has stimulated economic growth in Southwest Virginia for nearly three decades, and we are proud to support its continued success,” noted Secretary of Commerce and Trade Caren Merrick. “Businesses rely on 3PL services like Camrett’s to not only expand their reach and customer base, and to keep products moving efficiently throughout the supply chain. We are thrilled that Camrett Logistics is doubling down on its long-term commitment to Virginia with this expansion.”
Camrett Logistics provides warehouse and 3PL services. The company currently operates 11 facilities in West Virginia and Virginia.
“The expansion of Camrett Logistics in Pulaski County will contribute to economic growth in Virginia’s New River Valley,” added Katie Boswell, Executive Director of Onward New River Valley. “We congratulate Camrett Logistics on this exciting announcement and look forward to their continued success in our region.”
