East Coast’s Largest Supply Chain Network Hiring to Support Growth


MAULDIN, S.C., July 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The ADUSA Supply Chain network expanded again on July 17, with the first shipments departing from a new distribution campus in Mauldin, S.C., bound for area Food Lion stores. The launch of shipping from the new campus marks its official opening. The distribution center, acquired from C&S Wholesale Grocers in May, is now one of the largest distribution centers in the ADUSA Supply Chain network, and when fully operational will fulfill grocery, fresh, frozen, health and beauty care and break pack for nearly 200 grocery stores. Dairy, fresh and frozen products are the first to begin shipping from the site.

“The opening of the Mauldin distribution campus is another important step forward in our work to transform the ADUSA supply chain network, deepening our distribution reach into the Southeast,” said Chris Lewis, President, ADUSA Supply Chain. “Continuing to expand the network infrastructure is core to our ability to serve brands like Food Lion that trust us to always deliver so they can be there for their customers with fresh, in-stock products whenever, wherever, however they want to shop.”
