Mouser Electronics, Inc. announced that the major expansion of its global headquarters in Mansfield, Texas, is now nearing completion. The first phase, due for completion on schedule this quarter, adds an extra 250,000 square feet to the distributor’s global distribution facilities, supporting strong worldwide growth, significantly in excess of the industry average. The enhanced facility allows Mouser to maintain its leadership in shipping products faster to customers around the world. 

Already pretty smart, the new Mouser warehouse will be even smarter. New equipment, including a new mobile app for the warehouse management system, a state-of-the-art packing machine and a heavy duty turret truck for maximizing palette storage, makes it easier for the company to serve its expanding customer base – currently serving over 520,000+ Engineers & buyers around the world.

Receiving has moved to the new building where 20 stations have been added to handle the thousands of boxes that arrive daily. There are 18 huge receiving/shipping doors for Fed-Ex, UPS, DHL and other transport trucks to pull up. Conveyor belts now take the incoming inventory, sort it and send it to the receivers’ station to be entered. “We’ve re-designed it to truly be ‘smart receiving,’” said Tina Sears, Mouser Vice President of Warehouse Operations.  “The goal is to accommodate growth and maximize efficiency."
