Jackson, Tenn., is the location of Delta Faucet Co.'s new central distribution center. Construction began in July 2003, and company officials expect a majority of Delta's volume to be shipped out of this 255,000-sq.-ft. facility by mid-2004. It will allow for the stocking and shipping of matching accessories manufactured by Masco sister companies.

Delta's existing plant warehouses in Greensburg, Ind., and Chickasha, Okla., will continue to support the distribution center by shipping regionally.
