CSCMP CHICAGO presents:
Magid Glove and Safety Facility Tour
Thursday APRIL 21, 2016

Event Overview:

Magid, a leading manufacturer and supplier of safety solutions and personal protective equipment (PPE), opened their new 700,000 square-foot global headquarters in the Village of Romeoville in June 2015.

After nearly 70 years of residing in the City of Chicago, moving to Romeoville marks the next phase of successful growth for this family-owned business. Magid’s new world headquarters provides room for expansion and increases the Company’s efficiencies by consolidating corporate offices, manufacturing and distribution operations under one roof. The Company serves 25,000 customers with over 100,000 safety products in the industrial market and also serves the consumer market through national chains such as AutoZone and True Value Hardware.

Magid is capitalizing on the expanded space and the centralization of functions under one roof. In addition to added efficiencies in supporting its nationwide sales and service functions, the move enables the Company to further strengthen its offering of custom-manufactured solutions for customers’ hard-to-solve safety challenges. This unique offering is a key factor in the growth of Magid’s loyal customer base.

As part of the move, Magid installed the most advanced automated warehouse and distribution system in their industry. It is designed to grow with Magid while ensuring speed, accuracy and throughput that their customers have grown to expect. With $50MM in stocked inventory, Magid delivers 99.9% order accuracy and same day shipping 98.5% of the time. These changes support Magid’s ability to provide the best safety solutions at the best value furthering their vision for everyone to have safety at work.
