Location

First thing's first: where a distribution center is located determines most everything else about how, when, and where product is to be distributed. Given this, location is a paramount criterion when selecting a company for your product distribution needs.

Please note: Actual locations are described on our Location main section page.

Highway Access

All facilities are near major roads and interstates. In most cases facilities are near a confluence of highways, which offer many distribution and carrier routing options.

Major Market Proximity

A distribution center should be close to your distribution end points, but not too close to any specific end point. CDS facilities are all located nearby major markets such as Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and New York City, but they are not within city limits, thus providing convenient access to those markets, their complete surrounding districts, and nearby cities and states.

Business-Friendly Jurisdictions

CDS seeks to establish strong business and government relationships in the towns, counties, and states where we do business. These relationships help to resolve issues which could impact the distribution process.
