Salt Lake City, UT-based Codale Electric Supply — a Sonepar Company — announced its expansion 2025 plan, which includes the addition of an automated central distribution center (CDC) and three new branch locations in the West.

As part of its expansion strategy, the company plans to open a new 150,000-square-foot CDC in Las Vegas, NV. Codale said the facility will feature an automated warehouse with optimized picking processes to ensure fast and accurate order fulfillment for its customers. In 2023, Codale acquired Las Vegas-based NEDCO, which the company said strengthened its position in the Nevada market. Subsequently, NEDCO rebranded as Codale.

The company will also launch a Pro Logistics Center in Las Vegas, offering value-added staging and storage services. In addition, it will open a new branch in Saratoga Springs, UT, while the existing Midvale, UT branch will be relocated to Draper, UT. The company is further strengthening its presence in Idaho with the opening of a new branch in Idaho Falls.

Founded in 1975 by Dale and Jay Holt, the electrical distributor celebrates its 50th anniversary through continued expansion, having grown to employ over 530 associates and operate 18 branches across Utah, Wyoming, Nevada and Idaho.
