McDonough, GA – Mazda has commemorated the grand opening of Mazda North American Operations’ new Parts Distribution Center (PDC) with a ribbon cutting ceremony. The 190,000 square foot facility is located in McDonough, GA, about 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta.
Senior Vice President of US Operations, Robert Davis and Cat Logistics General Manager, Eric Cagle headlined the ceremony. The joint partnership between Mazda and Caterpillar will create a minimum of 15 full-time jobs, as well as seasonal, part-time employment opportunities. Once running at full capacity, the PDC will supply more than $8 million in Mazda-exclusive parts inventory to dealers in the region, as well as throughout the world if needed.
Mazda Press Release:
The launch of the Greater Atlanta PDC is one of the first milestones in a $20 million Parts Distribution Center Network Expansion that MNAO announced to its dealers in July 2010. The expansion will create a network of seven Parts Distribution Centers in North America – five in the U.S. and two in Canada – and reinforces the company’s commitment to customer satisfaction.
