The company has opened a 48,600-sq.ft. facility in Sugar Land, TX that is equipped to handle warehousing and distribution, cold-chain capability, reverse logistics and regulatory-compliant disposition. The total investment is $1.5 million, and is occurring at the same time as a doubling of controlled-substances (Sched. II-V) warehousing at the Boca Raton center.
