HOUSTON, JUNE 26,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Tailored Brands, the
largest specialty retailer of menswear and rental products in
the United States, proudly
announces the opening of its rental distribution center (DC) in
Aurora, IL. Located at 2000
Deerpath Road in the Orchard Gateway warehouse, this new facility
marks a significant step forward in the Company's goal to improve
service and efficiency.
The new 285,000 square-foot distribution center will service
Chicago, Cincinnati, Detroit, and Minneapolis, each of which is currently
serviced by other DCs in Houston,
Pittston and Atlanta. The Orchard
Gateway warehouse is one of the largest ever constructed on the
I-88 Corridor.
Strategically located, the Aurora DC will significantly reduce
shipping times and costs for nearly 140 stores. Its proximity to
these Men's Wearhouse and Jos. A. Bank stores will increase product
availability and enable the Company's truck fleet to accommodate
next-day deliveries, further reducing shipping fees.
Aurora's DC is also expanding
the Company's workforce, employing 125 full- and part-time team
members as well as more than 100 seasonal employees during prom and
wedding seasons.
To celebrate the opening, Tailored Brands will host a
ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new location today, June 26. Peter
Sachse, CEO of Tailored Brands, and Jamie Bragg, Chief Supply Chain Officer, will be
present to commemorate the occasion with the Aurora community.
Mr. Bragg shared, "The Aurora DC opens just in time for
customers who are preparing for late summer formal events and fall
weddings, offering a wide range of rental and purchase options to
meet their needs. I want to thank the team at Principle
Construction for their professional guidance throughout the
project. Principle's expertise, depth of experience and attention
to detail helped make this a truly state-of-the-art facility."
