Nordstrom expects to complete the transition of operations from its fulfillment center in San Bernardino, California, to its West Coast omnichannel center in Riverside, California, during its second fiscal quarter, according to a May 30 earnings call.
The shift builds on the retailer’s efforts to optimize its supply chain capabilities, which in Q1 resulted in a more than 5% increase in click-to-delivery speed and an improvement in fulfillment costs, according to the call.
“The West Coast Omnichannel Center is our newest, most automated, and lowest cost fulfillment center,” Nordstrom CEO Erik Nordstrom told analysts. “It has been scaled to serve our customers across the Nordstrom and Nordstrom Rack banners.”
