Sabert Corporation has opened a new 300,000-square-foot distribution center in Locust Grove, Georgia, expanding its U.S. distribution network and increasing its ability to serve customers across the Southeast. The facility is intended to reduce delivery times and support customer demand in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, and North Carolina. The new Sabert Distribution Center represents one of the company’s most significant recent supply chain investments and expands its North American footprint.

The Locust Grove facility will hold Sabert’s range of molded fiber pulp, paper, and plastic food packaging solutions, placing inventory closer to customers across the region. The additional location will increase storage capacity throughout the company’s distribution network while helping shorten transit times for Southeast customers. “This investment represents both our commitment to our customers and our confidence in the continued growth of the Southeast market,” said Paul McCann, CEO, Sabert Corporation. “Our customers in this region have helped drive our success for many years, and this facility allows us to respond faster and better serve customers as their partner of choice.”

The new Sabert Distribution Center forms part of the company’s broader focus on operational excellence and complements its North American network of seven U.S. production sites and Nuvida, its full-service plastic recycling facility. Sabert said the investment is part of its continued efforts to strengthen supply chain resilience through investments in U.S. manufacturing, recycling, and distribution capabilities while advancing its sustainability goals. Shipping from the Locust Grove facility is scheduled to begin later this month, with customer transitions planned throughout the fall.
