RK Logistics Doubles Phoenix Footprint with New 80,000-Sq.-Ft. Temperature-Controlled Facility in Tempe
RK Logistics Group has expanded its greater Phoenix operations with a new 80,000 square-foot, Class A, temperature-controlled warehouse at 7979 South Hardy Drive in Tempe, effectively doubling local capacity to nearly 158,000 square feet for secured storage and distribution serving the region’s fast-growing industries.
What’s New
- Facility specs: 25 dock doors, 30-foot clear heights, and 200+ parking spaces for trucks, trailers, and autos—supported by material-handling equipment and trained personnel for rapid receiving, inventory management, and order fulfillment.
- Services offered: customized warehousing and secured storage for bulk and palletized goods, inventory control and maintenance, kitting and order assembly, order fulfillment, and expedited/dedicated transportation.
- Strategic access: close proximity to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, major east-west and north-south interstates, and nationwide intermodal rail, enabling faster regional and national distribution.
Why It Matters for Phoenix’s Innovation Economy
The Tempe expansion enhances RK’s ability to support renewable energy, semiconductor, manufacturing, and other high-growth sectors that require high-quality, rapid-response inventory and distribution solutions. The added capacity complements the area’s momentum as a logistics and advanced manufacturing hub.
Building on a 2024 Tempe Entry
RK Logistics entered the Phoenix market last year by taking over a 79,000-sq.-ft. climate-controlled warehouse next door at 7929 South Hardy Drive—including existing warehousing/freight contracts and a modest fleet—laying the groundwork for today’s footprint expansion.
Part of a Multi-State Network
The new Tempe site joins RK’s network across California (Fremont, Hayward, Newark, Livermore), Michigan (Ann Arbor), Texas (Austin), New York (Long Island), and Arizona (Tempe)—a portfolio totaling ~1.7 million square feet of warehousing that supports lithium-ion battery, EV, and semiconductor customers, among others.
