Motion Industries has opened a new distribution center in Auburn, Washington.
The facility is managed by Ryan Mort.
The DC has easy access to Interstates 5, 405 and 90 and is situated only 15 minutes from Sea-Tac International Airport. Covering just over 62,000 square feet, the DC stocks and ships a broad range of industrial parts and supplies including bearings, power transmission products, fluid power components, electrical parts, safety supplies, and more. The new distribution center serves 24 area Motion Industries branch locations daily, as well as the entire Motion Industries North American footprint as needed.

Limbaugh added that additional enhancements will come down the road, and looks forward to fulfilling plans for growth.

The new facility complements Motion’s primary North American distribution centers in
Birmingham, Alabama; Tracy, California; Chicago; Baltimore; Dallas; Edmonton, Alberta; and Lachine, Quebec.
