New US headquarters
Move to Duncan
New US headquarters
In the fourth quarter of 2019, FlexQube opened for discussion the possibility of moving its US headquarters for FlexQube Inc.
For us this is a large and ambitious project that involves relocating production to our own plant. There are many advantages to your own production plant. It gives you better control over the process in the supply chain and ensures that the customer is in focus every step of the process. After completing investigations and discussions in which the advantages of an in-house production facility were definitely
convincing, the decision was taken to move the production facility. In July 2020, the head office moved from Swainsboro, Georgia, to Duncan, South Carolina.
”In conclusion, the project of moving our US production plant is an important strategic decision for FlexQube, which has so far proved to be very successful.”
The USA is FlexQube's largest market, which contributed to the decision to move to our own plant, giving us better control across the whole value chain, and was a natural next step for FlexQube Inc. Since moving to Duncan, we have also expanded our sales representation in the area by hiring two new colleagues, DJ Jackson as sales representative and Michael Gore as Sales Manager for North America. They join our colleague, Shawn Lynch, to secure FlexQube's market area in the South East and to help ensure that it becomes our key area in the US.
The project was a natural step for FlexQube. Despite major challenges and tribulations that resulted from moving during the corona pandemic, it has been very successful. We have adhered to the restrictions that have been in place. The fact that it has been implemented so smoothly is largely thanks to our employees on site in the new facility. Our new team on site has with good results taken great responsibility and stamped its mark on FlexQube's corporate culture.
In conclusion, the project to move our production facility in the USA is an important and strategic decision for FlexQube, which has so far proved to be very successful. With added and improved customer focus in our production, we will now be able to provide even better service to our customers, which is in line with our vision of making our customers world leaders in intralogistics.
