Cardinal Health, an Ohio-based pharmaceutical and medical product distributor, recently opened a distribution center in Greenville County.
The new center supports the company’s at-Home solutions business which provides home health care medical supplies. Products include diabetic supplies such as glucose monitors, incontinence and ostomy supplies, breast pumps, and more.
The 350,000-square-foot facility is located near Piedmont along Interstate 85. It is the largest Cardinal Health at-Home distribution center to date.
“Our expansion into Greenville allows us to continue to deliver on our promises to customers and their patients while creating a resilient supply chain to support this sustained growth,” said Rob Schlissberg, president of Cardinal Health at-Home.
Roughly 200 jobs are expected to be created by the facility. Employees will work alongside automation, artificial intelligence and robotics technologies to ship around 8,000 packages a day to patients.
Hank Hyatt, senior vice president of economic competitiveness for the Greenville Chamber, said Cardinal Health at-Home is a great fit for Greenville.
“We’re proud Cardinal Health saw the value in our community that has a strong workforce, world-class transportation assets and a wonderful quality of life, and we look forward to having them be part of Greenville for years to come,” he said.
