SRC Logistics announced last week it has expanded its facility on North Mulroy Road in east Springfield.

A news release from SRC Logistics says the company added 150,000 square feet of warehouse space to its existing 162,000 square-foot facility on North Mulroy Road completed in 2021.

The expansion is part of SRC Logistics' 10-year plan that includes $75 million - $100 million in real estate development for both manufacturing and retail space.

This new climate-controlled facility also features narrow racking and turret trucks for maximized space and workflow. SRC Logistics’ warehousing services include contract leasing, inventory optimization, order fulfillment solutions and finished goods distribution.

“In the past five years, SRCL and our customers have seen record growth which has led to two expansions with a third expansion in progress," said Mike White, president of SRC Logistics, in a news release. "As we implement our growth strategy, we are excited that the added capacity allows our current and future customers to grow with us.”

SRC Logistics currently takes up the entire 312,000 square-foot building on North Mulroy Road and a 410,000 square-foot warehouse facility on Pythian Street in Springfield.

The release says a third construction phase is already underway at SRC’s property on North Mulroy Road, a 413,000 square-foot building located north of the existing facility. SRC Logistics plans to occupy the space after completion by the end of 2022.
