Home Depot selects Kuehne + Nagel to manage Florida facility
The Home Depot, a home improvement retail chain, has contracted with Kuehne + Nagel, a Swiss provider of forwarding and logistics services, to manage a central Florida distribution facility that is supporting hurricane disaster-relief efforts.
Under terms of the agreement, Kuehne + Nagel is running a 530,000-square-foot distribution center secured by The Home Depot in Orlando, to help replenish 145 Home Depot stores in an area that has recently suffered the direct impact of hurricanes Charley, Frances and Jeanne.
This project, expected to last for about six months, is operating round-the-clock. The Home Depot has used Kuehne + Nagel to support seasonal warehousing and distribution activities.
