Here we grow again, another large industrial project is in the works on the West Plains to the south of Spokane International Airport. In fact, this new facility is close by the Caterpillar Distribution Center, which is also quite large and was a big newsmaker when it open a couple of years ago.
This new facility will be for Keystone Automotive, which is a Pennsylvania based wholesaler of aftermarket automotive parts and a subsidiary of LHQ Corp. The center will act as a regional distribution center and will be located off of Hallett Rd. at 6120 S. Thomas Mallen Rd. .
Construction on the new building will start soon with an opening planned for late this year. The new Keystone Automotive Distribution Center will have about 250,000 square feet of space and employ about 60.
Spokane based SDS Realty is responsible for the sale of the property and Garco Construction,Inc. also locally based will do the construction work on the new center. Keystone Automotive also already operates a much smaller distribution center here in Spokane at 3200 E. Trent Ave. that location will likely close once this new location opens.
