OHL Expands Business with World-Leading Sports Equipment Manufacturer

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., June 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- OHL, a leading global third-party logistics provider, announced it has expanded its relationship with Performance Sports Group, Ltd. and has begun fulfillment operations for Bauer Hockey, the world's leading manufacturer of hockey equipment and a subsidiary of Performance Sports Group.

Bauer Hockey will occupy a new 250,000 square foot fulfillment center located in Romeoville, Ill. that will provide scalability in its storage capacity to support Bauer Hockey's needs and product expansion opportunities.  Bauer Hockey is the second brand within Performance Sports Group to partner with OHL for fulfillment operations. Since 2010, OHL has operated 80,000 square feet of fulfillment operations in Memphis, Tenn. for Easton Baseball/Softball.

"Our company has grown significantly over the past few years and as a result of last year's acquisition of Easton Baseball/Softball we explored several opportunities across the combined organization to enhance our overall supply chain," said Paul Gibson, Chief Supply Chain Officer, Performance Sports Group. "Easton Baseball/Softball has had a successful partnership with OHL for more than five years and we realized that there was an opportunity to create synergies within our organization as a result of that long-standing relationship."

In addition to providing fulfillment operations for Easton Baseball/Softball and Bauer Hockey, OHL will also begin fulfillment operations for Maverik Lacrosse later this summer.

"Over the years, the team at OHL's Memphis operation has formed a great relationship with Easton Baseball/Softball, which led OHL to the recent opportunity to expand our business with Performance Sports Group," comments Scott McWilliams, Chief Customer Officer, OHL. "While our experience and expertise enable a stronger fulfillment strategy for Bauer Hockey, it is the partnership that we have built with their parent company that will allow us to further collaborate and support the growth of Performance Sports Group as a whole."
