LIMA, PA - December 5, 2017 - Pilot Freight Services (Pilot), a worldwide provider of transportation and logistics services, announces the opening of a new 70,000 sq. ft. warehouse at 7015 Corporate Park Drive in Las Vegas, NV. Conveniently located between McCarran International Airport and the Las Vegas Strip, Pilot's new warehouse is ideal for not only the ever-increasing demand for long and short-term storage solutions for trade show, theater and concert related freight ranging from elaborate booths to the massive stage and lighting systems to video display equipment. The warehouse is set to open on January 20, 2018 and will add five new positions.
The new facility boasts 32 ft. ceilings, 20 dock doors and sophisticated climate control. A combination of brand-new construction and a roof made of Polar-Ply Radiant Barriers offer a unique pure aluminum foil sheet which prevents 97 percent of summer radiant heat from entering the building, reducing temperatures by up to 50 degrees. This climate technology will sustain the entire warehouse at a constant temperature regardless of exterior temperatures. These features are beneficial for storing products and technology that are sensitive to extreme temperatures including medical devices like imaging machines as well as consumer electronics and gaming industry merchandise. State-of-the-art security with round-the-clock motion, audio and camera sensors offer complete interior and exterior monitoring with live personnel.
The space will also be equipped with an Element WMS warehouse management system for maximum flexibility and system interaction in the warehouse. The system is completely customizable and able to integrate with customers' systems. Through this, Pilot is able to better manage the supply chain processes and significantly improve employees' workflows, equating to large increases in productivity, efficiency and increased quality.
"Pilot is excited to open a new top-tier warehouse in Las Vegas," said John Hill, President & Chief Commercial Officer for Pilot Freight Services. "This warehouse will provide excellent benefits to clients in the Las Vegas area with its prime location to tradeshow warehouses - the space is adjacent to GES and Freeman, and only 5 miles from the airport."
The Las Vegas facility is a strategic addition to Pilot's strong domestic and global network of stations that move freight throughout the world and provide custom shipping and logistics services through the entire supply chain. High level customer service is from live, local personnel 24-hours a day, 365-days a year.
