Foodservice, grocery, safety and JanSan products distributor Bunzl announced the expansion of its Piperton, TN distribution center, doubling its size to 1 million square feet.

According to a May 15 news release, the expansion supports the transition of its Bunzl Safety Personal Protection Equipment companies — Cordova Safety Products, SAS Safety Corp., M.L. Kishigo Manufacturing Co. LLC and Majestic Glove — into the expanded DC currently serving MCR Safety and Revco/Black Stallion, following the planned closure of the company’s Memphis distribution facility.

Bunzl added that the newly expanded Tennessee facility is built to boost efficiency, streamline logistics and meet evolving customer needs. The company said the move strengthens its nationwide service with faster distribution, better inventory management and greater capabilities.

“This expansion represents more than just additional space — it’s a reflection of our commitment to growth, innovation and delivering superior service to our customers,” Bunzl Division President of Safety Beth Dahlke said in the release.

All employees affected by the transition have been offered positions at the expanded Piperton DC or the Collierville office.
