Packer Fastener announced its latest expansion on June 1 in the form of a new distribution center to service the Indianapolis metropolitan area.

The Green Bay, WI-based fasteners and industrial supplies company said the new, nearly 40,000-square-foot DC — located in Lebanon, IN — strengthens supply for commercial contractors, manufacturers and fabricators working in rapidly growing industries that include data center, renewable energy and power generation.

“Positioning inventory and support services closer to these regional customers will help reduce lead times, improve delivery speed, and strengthen supply reliability in a key manufacturing and industrial zone,” the company said in a news release. “By investing in the resources and infrastructure necessary to support growth, Packer Fastener is committed to serving commercial construction customers where they need support the most and adapting to their ever-changing needs.”

Marking the company’s 12th location overall, it’s just the latest recent expansion for Packer Fastener. Since September 2024, the company has added DCs in metros of Kansas City; Columbus, OH; Atlanta and now Indianapolis; along with new branches in Mississippi and Iowa.

Whatever procurement managers, project managers and job site superintendents need — Packer Fastener has boots on the ground in Indianapolis to help serve you,” said Terry Albrecht, Packer Fastener CEO. “We’re expanding strategically to markets that are growing quickly to supply a more localized inventory. That means our partners get what they need and stay on schedule.”

Besides its namesake fasteners, Packer Fastener carries a range of products that include anchors, suspension and hanging systems, abrasives, safety PPE, fittings, welding supplies and more. The company’s value-added services include eCommerce, kitting, VMI and vending programs. Its sister organization, Packer Freight, is a full-service third-party logistics company.
