Germany based Südwolle Group, a producer of pure wool and wool blend worsted spun yarns for weaving and knitting, says its new Mount Airy distribution center in the US has exceeded its expectations with regards to service levels.
According to Sudwolle, the 18,000 square foot facility which opened in July 2014 came up to speed quickly and efficiently, providing improved service to US customers.
“The warehouse came online so successfully due to our dedicated employees and the supportive business environment provided in Mount Airy,” says Hans von Schuh of Südwolle Group.
He adds, “Our textile, apparel, and legwear customers in the US have responded very positively to the increased service provided by this conveniently located distribution facility.”
“The Mount Airy distribution center is just one facet of Südwolle Group’s increased focus on the American market,” it informs.
In addition, the company will also be participating in major trade events in order to connect with apparel and legwear companies headquartered in the US like Outdoor Retailer Winter Market.
Südwolle Group says it has a long-standing commitment to sustainability and environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing.
Südwolle Group participates in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) which provides guidelines for responsible reporting of environmental and sustainability metrics.
The company also publishes its Ecobalance annual report detailing its environmental, social responsibility, and sustainable manufacturing initiatives around the world.
Südwolle Group collaborates with industry groups like the International Wool Textile Organization (ITWO) and submits to third-party, independent testing and certification of its products, practices, and facilities.
The company, which is headquartered in Nürnberg, Germany, has operations in Germany, Poland, Italy, Romania, Australia, and China and the Mount Airy facility is Südwolle Group’s first US location.
