3PL Considering Expanding Operations to Knoxville

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Feb. 4, 2015 - PRLog -- LOUSVILLE, KY (1/7/2015) – This United States are so vast that sometimes much of the local growth and development goes largely unnoticed unless the usual subjects are referenced. However the region around Eastern Tennessee houses arguably one of the best kept secrets this side of the Mississippi. Louisville-based Derby Supply Chain Solutions has recently added Tennessee’s third largest city, Knoxville, to its short list of possible expansion sites.

Derby is considering Knoxville as a way to bolster its regional presence and take advantage of its strategic location. Access to transportation infrastructure, close proximity to major industrial and commercial hubs and a diversified workforce are all reasons why Derby Supply Chain Solutions decided to target Knoxville as a site for the company’s warehouse portfolio.

Bill O’Bryan, Director of Sales & Marketing explains that, "Knoxville made our short list of possible expansion sites. The stable local economy and broadly skilled workforce were opportunities we couldn't overlook." Knoxville also observes unemployment rates lower than that of the national average and offers a strong and educated workforce pool thanks to the local University of Tennessee. All these aspects helped the business make the strategic decision to locate a point of operation there and take advantage of one of the most commercially viable cities in the US.
