These two locations separately employed around 25 people, but the Manufacturing and Distribution Center will more than triple that number to between 80 and 100 employees when operating at full capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Acworth benefits from the latest state-of-the-art metal-fabricating equipment and paint-coating line. Vanderlande will manufacture baggage conveyor and sortation equipment, carousels and automated passenger checkpoints (such as SCANNOJET) for the airports market. In addition, the company will produce POSISORTER and COMPAXORTER line-sorting technology solutions, as well as bulk conveyors and chutes for the warehousing and parcel markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vanderlande\u2019s COO, Gert Bossink stated: \u201cWe have adopted a strategy in which we\u2019re balancing global sourcing and local manufacturing to achieve the best solution for our customers. Opening the new center in the USA fits perfectly with this approach.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vanderlande\u2019s President Airports, North America, Nick Porter, added: \u201cThe investment in this facility demonstrates Vanderlande\u2019s commitment to the North American market. It will reduce the total cost of ownership for our customers through shortened lead times, increased flexibility and the agility made possible by producing high-quality products here in Georgia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main North American customers to be serviced by Vanderlande\u2019s Manufacturing and Distribution Center are UPS, FedEx and some of North America\u2019s largest airports. These include Los Angeles, Chicago O\u2019Hare, Vancouver and Atlanta. The Acworth site will also house the company\u2019s North American spare parts business and act as a distribution point for the continent\u2019s and other global shipments.<\/p>\n\n\n    <style>\n                        @media all and (min-width:0px) {\n                    #block-9nkab2qa8at492apfqnn21r2uckvyjyvloimnogwqu7j {\n                        height: 125px;                    }\n                }\n                <\/style>\n    <div id=\"block-9nkab2qa8at492apfqnn21r2uckvyjyvloimnogwqu7j\" class=\"wp-block-juist-blocks-spacer\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vanderlande is pleased to announce the launch of its new Manufacturing and Distribution Center in Georgia (GA), USA.
