Update: Expansion of W&H North America
You might have heard by now - W&H is expanding! We are growing our facility and our team, making a significant investment to serve our North American customers better than ever. Now that we are several months into the project, progress is really taking shape.
Warehouse Expansion - 12,000 SF additional
The first phase is to double the size of our warehouse, adding 12,000 square feet to store and process spare parts inventory. This expansion means we will be able to stock more parts, ensuring even faster service. Here is a tidbit: nearly 70% of all spare parts orders are shipped directly from this warehouse in Rhode Island. With this upgrade, we are set to make those numbers even better. The warehouse expansion is ahead of schedule and will be completed in early February.
Next up is our new 5,600-square-foot office building, designed to support our growing team. It will include a mix of spaces for collaboration and focused work, ready to open by late spring. The final phase is the renovation of our current 8,400-square-foot office space, scheduled to be done by the end of 2025.
Sustainability remains a core focus throughout the project. We are adding photovoltaic panels to power nearly all our electricity needs, including the HVAC system in the office spaces, and installing EV charging stations for electric vehicles.
This expansion reflects our commitment to always improving how we serve you, our North American customers. We are excited to make these upgrades and to keep delivering the top-tier service and support you expect from W&H!
