On Oct. 16, Salt Lake City-based Industrial Supply Company announced the opening of a new distribution center in Chandler, Arizona, the company’s first in the state.

With the new opening, Industrial Supply Company now has eight locations in four states, including Utah, Wyoming and Nevada. The company opened its Nevada location last month.

“By having supplies near where they’re needed, we can help existing and new customers improve their supply chain efficiencies, prevent disruptions in their businesses, and maximize their profitability,” said Tyler Whipple, Industrial Supply’s Regional Vice President of Sales and the person in charge of the company’s expansion into Arizona.

Whipple said the expansion also will support Arizona’s thriving construction, mining, manufacturing and aerospace industries.

“This past century, Industrial Supply has been a witness and a participant in the Intermountain West’s tremendous economic growth, and we’re very excited to continue our work in Arizona,” Whipple said.

The new center is located at 4114 West Saturn Way, Suite 103 in Chandler, Arizona.
