Spartan Logistics Expanding to Bowling Green, Kentucky

Bowling Green, KY June 27, 2022 – Spartan Logistics, a third-party logistics provider based in Columbus, Ohio, has opened its 19th operating location in Bowling Green, Kentucky. With this expansion, Kentucky becomes Spartan Logistics' seventh state with an operating location and brings the company to nearly 4 million square feet of warehouse and distribution space. Spartan Logistics will also be hiring at least 40 people in Bowling Green and brings Spartan's team of warehouse professionals to 400 employees nationwide.

This dedicated facility is a 300,000-square-foot leased warehouse that will serve one of the world's largest manufacturers and is Spartan's third dedicated facility for this customer. The building also features new construction at an ideal location just one mile from the customer's manufacturing plant. Services provided to the customer include 24/7 coverage, inventory management, handling of goods, and a full-service shuttle operation to and from the customer's plant.

Spartan was made aware of the need just one month before beginning the operation and worked swiftly to put together a solution. This successful transition plan included specialized material handling equipment, along with experienced, and dedicated Spartan team members working with their valued vendor partners.

“I was born in Kentucky and it makes me very proud that we are returning to my home state to serve others,” said Spartan Logistics founder Ed Harmon, who was on site for the start-up. “As a family business now in our third generation, we commit to bringing our core values of service, teamwork, integrity, and respect to our team and our customer.

Spartan operates industrial real estate as a third-party logistics company combined with asset-based freight services. Spartan serves over 100 supply chain customers at 19 warehouse locations across seven states. For more information, visit our home page at www.spartanlogistics.com or call at (614) 497-1777.
