Palmer-Donavin Moves into a New Facility in Hebron, Kentucky

Palmer-Donavin has moved into a new, 200,000-square-foot facility in Hebron, Kentucky, and expand its service area to Nashville, Tennesee. The company will deliver to select dealers in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and now Tennessee. 

“We will be able to expand our service area without disrupting our current delivery days and, with the new facility, we can better serve our will-call business,” says Vic Enis, regional sales manager.  

The move from West Chester, Ohio, to Hebron, Kentucky makes the new facility more centrally located in the branch’s service area. The new facility features better lighting, a style of concrete with less control joints, and a new configuration of racking to allow for more product to be warehoused, according to a release.

Tom Bartlett, vice president of operations, says, “The layout of the racking in the new building has better flow of product that will allow us to be more efficient with the handling of product and timelier on transfers and deliveries. We’re also excited about the facility’s new construction as we expect less wear on equipment and on the bodies of employees. In terms of location, it is conveniently located close to Interstate-275, which will allow us to avoid morning rush hour traffic with route vehicles.” 

Palmer-Donavin has eight locations throughout the Midwest and services dealers in 11 states.
