New warehouse

[FmGrowit]

It's been a month since the move to the new warehouse and we're finally settling into a nice routine.


This is the processing area where the product is packaged. Nice and roomy


This is the retail order inventory. Get an order and fill it the same day.


This is wholesale product ready to ship. 50 lb. and 25 lb. bags of conditioned bulk product in vapor bags.


In the background is what will be the walk-in humidor for all of the cigar tobaccos. Hopefully, that will be finished in the next 30 days or so.

Hard to believe I was working out of a garage, spare bedroom and basement one year ago today.

If I get laid-off I'll send you my resume lol. Nice place you got there, a little more room than the garage and spare room eh?

Well, I didn't see any dart boards with my name on them so it's definitely looking good.

 

[BarG]

It all looks brand new. I like how roomy and brite it is.

Strictly an oversight. Don will correct it but it will be smaller than mine.

Are you kidding me? You two are the heads of my customer service department...you just didn't know it until now

Truth be told, this forum is largely responsible for the growth of Whole Leaf Tobacco and hopefully someday I'll be able to express my appreciation in a more concrete manner.

This is causing me a twinge of tobacco envy. The setup looks great. Some day, your old garage can be relocated to the lobby of your international headquarters.

Here's my warehouse area. Just to think, it began as a wash stand 40 years ago. Today, it has expanded to...well, it hasn't.

Give yourself a big pat on the back, in 1 year thats a huge leep.

 

[SmokesAhoy]

Looking really good!

 

[istanbulin]

Don, you really expanded your business. Congrats, really good lay out. As I know, last year tobacco exports of Turkey increased 25%, may be it's because of you. LOL

 

[Michibacy]

Don, looks fantastic, I showed a few interested co workers and they're amazed just the same. Keep up the good work, and rest assured you have made jealous FTT members such as my self.

cheers

Congratulations Don. If you need a Complain Dept. Head, let me know, I have some ideas in that area.
