Benchworks Moves to New Offices and Class A Warehouse Facility

Wednesday, January 23rd - 2008

CHESTERTOWN, MD--Benchworks moved its headquarters to a new office building in Chestertown, Maryland. In addition to new office space, the building contains 44,000 square feet of Class A warehouse space, bringing Benchworks' total warehouse space to almost 90,000 square feet. The extra space will serve to accommodate a large increase in client demand for product launch support, project management and fulfillment services.

Worth's Folly, the farm once home to Benchworks' headquarters, now serves as a meeting and retreat space used by Benchworks and clients alike.

Benchworks has recently assisted FUZE Beverages, LLC, a subsidiary of Coca Cola, in a major national launch of its products and promotional items. In June of 2007, Benchworks opened its eCommerce Center in Chestertown with 42,000 square feet. Then in December, Benchworks took down the new warehouse and office space on Talbot Street in Chestertown. Benchworks now has a total of 86,000 square feet of warehouse and fulfillment space available to support all facets of its multi-faceted business. Benchworks' expansion allows the firm to service its core client base of national pharmaceutical companies, food service providers and other Fortune 500 firms especially regarding new product launches. Recent programs include the creative development, deployment and fulfillment of over 1 million communication touch points to support a new product launch in the pharmaceutical industry.

The added warehouse facility will make it easier for Benchworks to expedite large roll-out shipments for large orders, provide best-of-breed warehousing for inventory, and ensure efficient and rapid turnaround on orders for company online stores. Benchworks has been at the forefront of numerous major promotional campaigns in support of the growing consumer trend towards non-carbonated, fruit and tea drinks and foods that encourage health and wellness. These marketing initiatives include creative partnerships with Heinz for their TrueSoups and Healthy Creations lines, as well as promotional program deployment and project management for FUZE.
