Horizon Logistics opens Los Angeles DC

Horizon Logistics said it has opened a new warehouse and cross-dock facility in Los Angeles to offer integrated inbound and export logistics services to manufacturers and retailers.

   The 176,000-square-foot distribution center is located 10 miles from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

   Horizon Logistics is using the facility to offer integrated distribution services — port drayage, air freight forwarding, rapid transload for international import and export logistics, intermodal transportation management, value-added distribution services and long-term storage.

   “While supply chains evolve away from Southern California for various reasons, L.A.-Long Beach will continue to be the primary gateway for U.S. imports and exports,” said Frank Knafelz, vice president of operations.
