Greenville, SC-based lighting and lighting controls maker Current has expanded its U.S. distribution network, the company detailed in a July 21 news release, with the investment designed to support faster service, greater efficiency and “smarter” product availability.

The new distribution model features Master Distribution Centers (MDCs) in Harrisburg, PA; Hendersonville, NC; and Mira Loma, CA, which handle bulk inventory and large distributor orders. Regional Distribution Centers (RDCs) in Chicago, IL; Dallas, TX; and Atlanta, GA focus on high-demand products and support more frequent shipments to jobsites and customers.

Current Lighting said this structure enables faster lead times, streamlined ordering, and better inventory placement, while strengthening coordination with distributors, agents and specifiers.

“This growth in our capabilities marks a pivotal step in our mission to deliver unmatched value to our customers and partners,” Chip Taylor, Current’s Chief Commercial Officer said in the release. “By optimizing our distribution network, we’re accelerating deliveries, improving product access, and staying focused on serving our customers better, regionally and nationally. This new model ensures that our best-of-class lighting and controls solutions are always within reach, wherever and whenever they’re needed.”
