Ingram Content Group is adding book manufacturing and print-on-demand services to its distribution center in Chambersburg, Pa. As a result of the change, Ingram's Allentown, Pa., location will close in October 2023. Allentown's stock will be integrated into the Chambersburg facility. Ingram plans to continue to fulfill all new and existing orders without a break in service or turnaround times.
Ingram CEO Shawn Morin commented: "Our business is growing. We are investing in the technologies that will enable us to keep up with increasing demand and better serve our customers. We are excited to be able to get more books into the world with the expansion of the Chambersburg facility to include both distribution and print-on-demand."
Ingram chief logistics officer Shawn Everson added: "Ingram's Chambersburg facility and all the associates employed there will be better equipped with the most innovative technology available."
