Daifuku America Corporation, a subsidiary of Daifuku Webb Holding Company and a leader in material handling solutions, will host its grand opening on September 22 at 11:00 a.m.
The event will showcase 8,000 square feet of new office space and a complete remodel of its existing building in Reynoldsburg, Ohio.
Mayor Michael B. Coleman from Columbus will speak at the event, as well as Daifuku president and CEO Masaki Hojo, Daifuku Webb Holding Company chairman, president and CEO Brian Stewart and Daifuku America Corporation president Aki Nishimura.
The additional floor space incorporates a modern open floor plan that features two entrances, one for customers and vendors and the other for employees.
