TOUR OF THE HOME DEPOT’S ROMEOVILLE DISTRIBUTION CENTER
The Home Depot is one of the country’s leading home improvement retailers with over $66B in revenue (#29 on the 2010 Fortune 500). Take a tour with CSCMP and learn how one of the dozens of The Home Depot’s distribution facilities, the Romeoville Distribution Center (RDC), fits into its world-class distribution network that supports hundreds of stores across the country.
Home Depot Tour Updates:
1. We will be in their overflow parking lot adjacent to the DC’s parking lot. They will put up orange signs so everyone knows where to go so “Follow the orange signs to the parking lot!”
2. The address of the PARKING LOT is 124 South Pinnacle Drive, Romeoville, IL, 60446, which is different than the DC address at 145 South Pinnacle Drive.
3. The lot is before/adjacent to the Main Home Depot lot. Again, “Follow the orange signs!”
4. As a point of clarification, the “RDC” in Home Depot’s Romeoville RDC stands for Rapid Deployment Center.
5. No walk-ups, so register before we are sold out.
