Briggs Plumbing Products has announced the opening of a new West Coast distribution center.

The 300,000-square-foot center, located in Anaheim, Calif., will serve the area from Western Canada to West Texas, and will allow Briggs to provide top quality products at affordable prices to a market where significant product demand exists. The facility will also allow Briggs to offer a "Will Call" program to its customers in the Los Angeles area.

In making the announcement, Chuck Dockery, president and CEO of Briggs Plumbing Products, said, "With over 100 years in the plumbing industry, Briggs is a strong brand among wholesalers, home builders and plumbing contractors. We are strengthening our West Coast presence with the addition of a Los Angeles-based distribution center. The center will offer greater access to our top-quality brands, such as the AltimaMAX and Abingdon lines, while enhancing customer service and deliveries."
