Hayward, CA -- March 20, 2006: Merit Logistics, a privately held transportation and logistics company based in Hayward, California, today announced it has moved its headquarters and and warehousing facilities to new, more spacious facilities to accommodate its short- and long-term plans for growth.
Founded in early 2005 as a non-asset-based freight forwarding company, it is now recognized as one of Northern California's fastest growing full-service transportation and logistics companies. In the last six months, it has tripled its client roster and revenues and expanded the range of services it offers to include a raft of warehousing and distribution services.
The company's new facilities, which are still located in the Hayward area, close to I-880 and CA-92, house its new corporate offices and its new full-service warehousing and distribution facilities. The warehousing and distribution facilities can easily be expanded on-demand to handle future growth.
Merit Logistics is one of the few transportation and logistics companies in Northern California to specialize in handling high-tech electronic components and equipment and has received industry-wide recognition for developing many innovative solutions to transporting, warehousing and distributing those goods. It also provides specialized services for the OEM and aftermarket automotive, motorcycle and ATV industry, for both the supplier and retail sectors.
"We're really excited about our new facilities," said Kevin Scherer, the company's co-founder and president. "We've grown a lot over the past year. Our new facilities are key to our expanding our services and our customer base. Though our customer base is somewhat diversified, our core competency is offering truly specialized services for the high-technology and vehicular industries, both of which have very exacting needs. Our new facilities will help us better meet those needs with new and innovative services," he added.
The company's new facilities are located at 28302 Industrial Blvd., Ste. K, Hayward.
