True Grade, a leading logistics provider and food and beverage (F&B) distributor to the cruise, hospitality, and grocery sectors, has announced the expansion of its Miami, Florida operations. With an additional 110,000 square feet of versatile dry, cold, and frozen storage space. This strategic growth supports the company’s ongoing efforts to meet the increasing demands of its diverse client base.
New Facility to Boost Flexibility and Service Offerings
The expanded campus is located in Miami Gardens. It now covers a total of 260,000 square feet. This expansion enables True Grade to accommodate its growing customer base. Their clients include major cruise lines, food service providers, and grocery companies.
“This expansion allows us greater flexibility in the services we offer and equips our team with the tools necessary to continue providing the exceptionally reliable service our clientele expects,” said Antonio Malave, co-founder and CEO of True Grade. “As global issues with the F&B supply chain continue, we’ve remained nimble and adaptable. This expansion further enhances that flexibility.”
New Headquarters and Expanded Capabilities
