Misumi Expanding In-Stock Offering with 4000 Additional Components

MISUMI USA, Inc. (Schaumburg, IL) announces a dramatic increase in the stock carrying units at its distribution center in Elk Grove Village, IL, near Chicago. As the result of substantial increases in sales for certain sizes and shapes of many popular Misumi mechanical and factory automation components, over 1800 items have been added to the local stock, effective immediately.

The effects of this increase in stocked items will include over 1550 catalog items with standard delivery times of three days, now available in one day, while another 280 with six-day standard delivery will now be available in one day, with no increase in shipping charges. As always, Misumi has no minimum order requirement, so this improved delivery schedule can impact the purchase of even one component.

These reduced lead times will be reflected in the next print run of the Misumi catalog, but will be noted online immediately for those customers using the company?s unique web ordering system.

According to Misa Nishimura, the company?s marketing director for the automation components business, "We have increased the capacity in our Elk Grove Village (Chicago) distribution center to meet the significant increase in demand with larger variation of products that will ship in one day. Tracking the most popular sizes and shapes in our product sales mix, we made this decision and we?re certain our customers will welcome it.? Ms. Nishimura further noted the company plans to add an additional 2000+ items to its local stock in the upcoming months, as North American sales have continued to increase steadily for the company.
