GREEN BAY, Wis. - Jan. 27, 2021 - RGL Logistics, a rapidly growing Green Bay-based provider of logistics services for traditional and e-commerce businesses, has completed the purchase of the former Fleet Farm warehousing and distribution center campus in Appleton. The 70-acre property includes five buildings encompassing 450,000 square feet of space, boosting RGL Logistics' total warehouse space to 4 million square feet.

"This purchase represents a step forward in our growth strategy as we expand service capabilities for our customers," said Joe Lemerond, Chief Executive Officer of RGL Logistics. "The demand for warehouse space has increased dramatically, particularly in the e-commerce sector as more business is conducted virtually than was predicted even a year ago."
