SAVANNAH -- Sunland Logistics Solutions Inc (Sunland) has expanded its network to the Savannah market after being selected to manage a 100,000 square foot fulfillment center for Panasonic Corporation of North America. This fulfilment center, located at the Georgia International Trade Center in Effingham County, will also provide excess capacity for Sunland to serve additional customers.
“Our team is excited to serve Panasonic in the growing Savannah market and to become an active member of this vibrant community,” said Elijah Ray, chief customer officer for Sunland.
Headquartered in Simpsonville, S.C., Sunland manages approximately 4 million square feet throughout the Southeast and Midwest of the U.S, including another 700,000 square foot retail operation in McDonough.. This second Georgia facility, located less than 10 miles from the Port of Savannah, is a strategic move for Sunland.
“We are happy to welcome Sunland Logistics Solutions to Effingham County and look forward to seeing their operation grow and prosper in our community,” said Troy Smith, chairman of the Effingham County Industrial Development Authority. “We also want to congratulate our partners at Chesterfield and Stonemont Financial for another great announcement in the Georgia International Trade Center.”
This new location in Effingham County will allow Sunland to continue to serve its existing customers through the Port of Savannah and to further its vision of growing into a great national 3PL provider of supply chain and logistics solutions.
“The Georgia Ports Authority welcomes the addition of service providers such as Sunland Logistics to Savannah,” said GPA Executive Director Griff Lynch. “Their
expertise in e-commerce and proximity to the container terminal expands the market of efficient supply chain options for customers at the Port of Savannah.”
Sunland joins a growing list of well-known national companies that call the Georgia International Trade Center home, including the most recent announcement of Shaw Industries. This $500 million world-class industrial park includes rail service by CSX, direct access to four-lane Ga. Hwy 21 and multiple building options for users.
"Our team is thrilled that Sunland selected GITC as their home in Savannah,” said Chance Raehn, senior vice president of Development for Chesterfield. “We look forward to supporting their growth in the market, starting with this lease and continuing as we both expand in GITC."
