Press release:

NEXgistics, a leading name in logistics and supply chain solutions, celebrated a significant milestone today in the construction of its new corporate headquarters. In a time-honored tradition, the final piece of steel was hoisted 50 feet above a cheering crowd during a topping-out ceremony signaling the next phase of construction.

The event was attended by key company stakeholders, local officials, and other project partners, united in their efforts to secure NEXgistics’ long-term future. Scheduled to open by the end of 2023, the new 140,000-square-foot facility ushers in a new era at NEXgistics.

Steve Northman, President of NEXgistics, addressed the crowd by saying, "We are thrilled to reach this significant milestone for our new headquarters. This modern facility will embody our company values of innovation, collaboration, and growth. It will serve as a hub for our talented team to better serve our clients as we grow right here in Western New York."

Town Supervisor Tom Schneider said, "Creating good-paying jobs is an essential part of our plans to move the Town of Pembroke forward. The logistics industry is a growing sector in our regional economy, and businesses like NEXgistics are creating more jobs for local workers. I thank NEXgistics for their investment and look forward to their future success and growth."

The new NEXgistics headquarters, being completed by Montante Construction, reflects the company's commitment to investing in its future. With state-of-the-art features and a design that prioritizes sustainability and functionality, the headquarters will house various departments, including executive and collaborative offices and warehouse spaces.

“Reaching the topping-off milestone is an exciting accomplishment, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with NEXgistics to bring their vision to life,” said Doug Elia, President of Montante Construction. “We are proud to create a space that enables NEXgistics to grow and invest in our community for years to come.”

The construction project is estimated to cost $17.6 million and is a generator of significant economic activity in Corfu, NY and beyond. The facility will support 24 jobs and result in additional direct and indirect benefits to the region.

"NEXgistics is a family business that has grown by leveraging technology, expertise, and strategic partnerships to drive innovation and supply chain efficiencies,” said Steve Hyde, Genesee County Economic Development Center president and CEO. “This project builds on their success and affirms our strategic investment in key sectors of the Genessee County economy to create cutting-edge products and jobs."
