Southwire to Open New ATL Distribution Center in West Georgia

1.2 million square foot facility will serve as hub for shipping and distribution.

BREMEN, Ga., Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Southwire is pleased to announce the construction of a new 1.2 million square foot distribution center located in Bremen, Ga. This new facility supports the company's long-term modernization strategy and efforts to continuously improve our customers' experience.

This state-of-the-art facility will create a centralized hub for Southwire's distribution and shipping activities in the West Ga. region. Southwire's ATL Distribution Center will combine the operations within Southwire's three existing distribution sites in Villa Rica, Ga., under one roof and will serve as a distribution center for internal and external customers across the organization.

This new facility reflects Southwire's ongoing collaboration with the local community and its partnership with Carroll County, Haralson County and the City of Bremen.

Last year, Southwire opened its newest distribution center in Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW), Texas. The new site in west Georgia will join its ranks as one of Southwire's largest facilities, providing service to all areas of the business.

The facility is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2026.
