RK LOGISTICS GROUP STARTS HIRING FOR NEW 50,000 SQUARE FOOT DISTRIBUTION CENTER IN FREMONT

Fremont, CA – Oct. 9, 2017

RK Logistics Group, a Silicon Valley leader in third-party logistics (3PL) and innovator in full-spectrum supply chain support, recently opened a new 50,000-square-foot distribution center, and is hiring more personnel to fill a variety of logistics roles.

“This is a major investment for our company and we’re excited to be able to create nearly two dozen new jobs for the community,” said Rod Kalune, chairman and CEO of RK Logistics Group. “This advanced logistics facility has been purpose-designed to serve the strict quality and delivery requirements of the Bay Area’s high-tech and automotive manufacturing industries, as well as medical device, high-value engineered building products and just-in-time retail replenishment.”

Services at the new facility include: secured warehousing and inventory management for parts, components and finished goods; inventory optimization, order picking and fulfillment; and light manufacturing such as pre-assembly and kitting. The site will also support RK’s specialized transportation programs for sequencing parts into Lean production lines at automotive and technology equipment factories, as well as just-in-time (JIT) deliveries to construction sites.

Kalune said that the facility, at 41049 Boyce Road in Fremont, is hiring warehouse associates, supervisors and material handling equipment operators. Many of these positions offer the opportunity to work with specialty automation equipment and robots on the warehouse floor.
