IFCO SYSTEMS (Houston, www.ifcosystems.com), is relocating its Oakley, California facility to nearby Antioch, California. The new location is centrally located to offer pallet recycling, pallet retrieval and other pallet management services to customers throughout the area.

The Antioch facility opened on June 25, 2007. Conveniently located just off Highways 4 and 160, this IFCO facility has access to convenient shipping lanes that will allow for quick and easy service within a 150 mile radius. This facility will service the Northern California area along with IFCO’s Riverside and Bakersfield, California facilities. “The new facility has enabled us to improve operations through a better layout. We’ve also been able to increase our fleet to 12 tractors and 135 trailers. Both improvements will allow us to better serve our Northern California customers,” says Brad Cutcher, general manager of the new facility.

IFCO SYSTEMS is an international logistics service provider with more than 180 locations worldwide. It operates a pool of more than 77 million Reusable Plastic Containers globally, which are used primarily to transport fresh produce from producers to leading grocery retailers.
