Just one year after breaking ground, Mills Fleet Farm opened its new 1.1 million sq. ft. distribution center in Chippewa Falls, WI, this month and order shipping is now underway. 

“I've built several distribution centers before, and I've never seen a project go so quick,” says Rich Tannenbaum, Chief Supply Chain Officer with Mills Fleet Farm told local media outlets.

Sedlak supported the design approval process and was active in design refinement and finalization for the facility, which is ramping up operations over the next several weeks.
