Lifetime Brands, Inc. announced its plan to construct a new 1.027 million-square-foot distribution center in Hagerstown, Maryland. This facility will serve as the company's primary U.S. East Coast distribution center, relocating from its current location in Robbinsville, New Jersey.
The new center represents an expanded capacity of 327,000 square feet, or a 46% increase, and is expected to be fully operational by the second quarter of 2026. This strategic move aims to drive operational efficiencies through the integration of a new warehouse management system and optimize logistics and freight time and costs.
Lifetime Brands has successfully negotiated state and county tax abatements and incentives totaling approximately $13 million over the lease term. This initiative is designed to support the company's long-term growth plan, including organic and inorganic opportunities, and to contain future expenses.
