Healthcare logistics specialist McKesson Corp. will build a highly automated regional distribution center in Oklahoma, saying the $179 million facility will replace an existing distribution center, expanding capacity and modernizing capabilities to support future demand.
The 330,000-square-foot facility will serve as a regional pharmaceutical distribution hub, the company said. Located in Moore, OK, at the North Moore Industrial Park, the site will feature digitally enabled logistics, state of the art automation, precision inventory management, and expanded cold chain capacity.
In addition, the site will increase McKesson’s capacity and throughput, and strengthen operational resilience with 100% standby power to support safe operations in adverse conditions.
“The healthcare supply chain grows more complex, from supporting advanced therapies with specialized handling and storage to navigating modernization, security, and supply constraints. Patients are counting on consistent, reliable access to critical therapies,” said Gene Cavacini, President, U.S. Pharmaceutical Distribution, McKesson. “This investment strengthens our ability to deliver with speed, precision and resilience, while expanding capacity to better serve Oklahoma, Texas, and the surrounding region.”
