The Bronx is an ideal location for us to build on this commitment to our customers," said Randy Swart, chief operating officer for A. Duie Pyle. "The new service center allows us to provide our current and future customers with unique transportation options in New York, expand Pyle's expedited service capabilities in the area and develop quality capacity throughout the busiest and most dense region in the U.S."

The Bronx location will bring approximately 100 new jobs to the area, including opportunities for truck drivers, fleet techs, dockworkers and support personnel. By entering the area, Pyle's customized service offerings will allow Pyle to meet the unique needs of each customer and will also allow Pyle customers to strategically source multiple solutions with enhanced delivery service and comprehensive expedited and same day delivery options.

"A. Duie Pyle's new service center brings new economic development and significant job creation to The Bronx, and we welcome them to our borough," says Ruben Diaz Jr., Bronx Borough President. "I look forward to seeing the great opportunities and growth Pyle will bring to the area, and to working with them to ensure that Bronx residents benefit from their opening here."

Pyle's Bronx service center will include 77 doors for progressive loading and unloading, a full-service fleet maintenance garage, 6,846 square feet of office space, and a three-deck parking structure. Pyle's customers in the area can rest assured that the all-weather facility will feature 100 percent stand-by power generation, on-site snow removal capabilities, heated dock operations providing protect from freeze capabilities, secure fencing and a 24/7 monitoring system. Additionally, a number of energy efficient features will be installed to ensure environmental and energy conservation.
