Panalpina expands L.A. facility

   Panalpina said this week it has added 42,000 square feet of warehouse space in Los Angeles, expanding its space in Los Angeles to more than 100,000 square feet.

   The Swiss logistics company's leased facility in Los Angeles has 27 docks doors and high-rise racking.

   'As companies are increasingly outsourcing all but core functions, this latest expansion in the crucial Southern California market is customer and market driven,' said Lucas Kuehner, managing director of Panalpina USA. 'Our Los Angeles business unit is gearing the new space to clientele that will most benefit from broader and more comprehensive supply chain involvement. In order to accommodate recent awards and proposed new business from existing customers in the high-tech and couture industries, we realized that it made a lot of sense to secure the additional space, fitting it with mobile logistics racking and shelving.'
