Schaedler Yesco Expands Allentown
“Fourth-generation, family- and employee-owned Schaedler Yesco Distribution, Inc. has announced the move to a larger facility in Allentown, PA.
In 2015, Schaedler Yesco purchased Queen City Electric on West Walnut Street. That location was known as a reliable, local source of electrical supplies for over 50 years. However, as rich as the history at Walnut Street was, customer needs initiated the purchase of a newer, larger facility to support the growing Lehigh Valley Marketplace.
On Monday, July 11, the company’s Allentown location began operations at 601 Highland Street, next to the Iron Pigs Stadium. The new facility boasts 30,269 square feet to support increased inventory and space for new services.
(The Leigh Iron Pigs are a Philadelphia Phillies Triple AAA affiliate. Looks like a perfect place for customer parking for games as well as pre-game events with suppliers!)
“The remodeling process took a lot longer than expected,” shared Josh Holly, Territory Manager. “But with much more space and easier access for our customers, it was worth the wait. We are excited about our investment to stay in the Lehigh Valley.”
The company is planning an Open House for Fall 2022.”
This is the second recent major infrastructure investment for for Schaedler YESCO as it recently announced the planned development of a RDC in the Pittsburgh area to support its western region growth strategy.
