SpartanNash announced it is expanding its distribution footprint with new operations out of a facility in Stockton, Calif. The expansion executed through SpartanNash's long-standing partnership with Coastal Pacific Food Distributors Inc. enhances SpartanNash's coast-to-coast supply chain capabilities, in addition to supporting the Company's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) priority to reduce fleet mileage and greenhouse gas emissions. The 500,000-square-foot, multi-temperature distribution center is expected to start serving existing and new SpartanNash customers starting in March.

It will help drive supply chain efficiencies, saving an estimated one million gallons of diesel annually and representing the equivalent of more than 100 tankers of gasoline, energy for more than 1,000 homes for one year, or more than 20,000 barrels of oil. It is the carbon sequestered by more than 150,000 tree seedlings grown for 10 years.
