BUFFALO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Life Storage, Inc., (NYSE: LSI), a leading national owner and operator of self-storage properties, announced today the launch of a micro-fulfillment center in Las Vegas, by its subsidiary, Warehouse Anywhere. The strategic alignment of Warehouse Anywhere’s intelligent third-party solution and Deliverr’s tech-based fulfillment network in Las Vegas enhances the fulfillment and delivery of online retail orders on the west coast.
The partnership allows Deliverr to strategically place e-commerce sellers’ inventory in the Warehouse Anywhere micro-fulfillment center in the Las Vegas metro area. From the center, sellers can reach over 27 million people with cost-effective one-day ground shipping or over 57 million people with two-day shipping. Warehouse Anywhere expects to be shipping approximately 1,300 packages per day by February from the Las Vegas facility.
Warehouse Anywhere retrofitted a number of storage units in an existing Life Storage facility in Las Vegas to create this 7,000 square-foot micro-fulfillment center with little day-to-day disturbance to the facility and its other customers. Equipped with the needed infrastructure and technology, Warehouse Anywhere can fulfill e-commerce orders from numerous marketplaces and platforms, such as Shopify, BigCommerce and WooCommerce.
