M33 Integrated Opens New Greensboro Location
GREENVILLE, S.C. – September 17, 2015 – M33 Integrated, a lead logistics provider headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina, is proud to officially announce the grand opening of its new downtown Greensboro Global Operations Center at 333 North Greene Street. The new facility is an expansion from the previous Battleground Avenue and Elm Street locations.
M33 provides the technology, tools and intelligence to automate logistics across every facet of the supply chain by delivering a unique combination of proprietary technology and supply chain expertise to help customers exceed business goals. Utilizing a co-management approach lets companies retain as much or as little control as they choose.
M33’s Global Operations Center monitors and co-manages freight activities to ensure efficient and cost-effective performance. The state-of-the-art facility houses over 150 Logistics and Supply Chain experts and features one of the industry’s only true, live support teams.
M33 Integrated’s growth is largely due to the dedication and service of its seasoned employees. “We take great pride in our employees’ constant support and loyalty,” states Co-Founder and Senior Partner Sammy Riddle. “They serve as a constant reminder that M33 is taking the necessary steps to be an employer where people desire to work.” 2015 marks the tenth anniversary for five M33 employees: Erick Calloway, Pam Turner, Jeff Thomas, Kim Wheeler, and Andrew Shaffer. “It is largely because of employees like these that M33 is able to reap the benefits today that were sown years ago.”
M33 welcomes guests for a Greensboro Chamber of Commerce-sponsored Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on September 23, 2015 at 4:30 pm. Following the ceremony, M33 will host an Open House from 5:00-7:00 pm with live music and food and drinks provided by local vendors.
The expansion to the new location has been an ongoing process since 2012. “We are looking forward to what the future may bring, as this marks the beginning of the next chapter in the growth of M33,” states Scott Riddle, Co-Founder and Senior Partner of M33 Integrated. “Because of our employees’ commitment and drive, we have been able to accomplish industry-leading milestones and further our success as a leading logistics (3PL) provider.”
Since moving into the new facility, M33 has hired approximately fifteen new employees and has plans of future growth and hires. The space has been designed from the ground up with emphasis on utilizing the latest technology in network infrastructure and incorporating audio and visual systems to enhance the ability to provide world-class customer service.
