Napoleon
Fireplace and BBQ manufacturer Napoleon has commissioned its newly expanded United States warehouse operations in Crittenden, Kentucky. Driven by strong demand for products, the added warehouse investment enables greater storage, faster fulfillment and higher levels of customer service to Napoleon’s US-based customers. The warehouse space in Kentucky grows Napoleon’s US footprint by 149 percent, and is the first step of many ongoing investments to support the needs of the US market. Expanding warehouse space is part of a broader expansion by Napoleon to elevate customer service across the US. This will be the Napoleon’s hub facility and the beginning of a larger US supply network expansion.
