On Sept. 24, Atlanta-based power tool manufacturer Diablo Tools announced that a new 531,000-square-foot warehouse and distribution facility will open in the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina in early 2024.

The Diablo Super Center facility will double its current U.S. storage capacity and feature high-speed sorters and carriers that will modernize distribution operations, the company said in a news release.

“These upgrades will reduce the current processing time and allow for faster order fulfillment for all customers,” Diablo said in a statement. “Among revolutionary technology upgrades, this facility will offer same day shipping to all dealers in the U.S.”

The Super Center also will update the current distribution process and provide “better efficiencies throughout all warehouse operations.”

“This unmatched warehouse upgrade is creating the new standard in distribution operations,” said Russell Kohl, President and CEO of Diablo/Freud Tools. “By doubling our current storage capacity, we will continue to dominate the industry by getting more Diablo products in the hands of our dealers and users at a faster rate. At Diablo we lead in new technologies, and we continue to do that with this expansion. This state-of-the-art facility exemplifies our Diablo energy, and we can’t wait to bring it to Triad area.”

With this expansion, Diablo said it will have more than 200 jobs in this area, having previously opened a center in Greensboro.
