The Delta and Pine Land Company keeps right on expanding.

Delta and Pine Land Company announced the acquisition of more than 500,000 square feet of warehouse space in Indianola, Mississippi, formerly owned by Modern Tool and Die Products (MTD). This is an extension of the company’s commitment to the Delta, which already includes facilities in Washington and Bolivar counties. The Indianola warehouse will be utilized immediately. The company expects to spend up to an additional $2 million to make necessary upgrades and modifications to the location.

“In the last several years, D&PL has been looking at the best means of managing our supply chain and the Mississippi Delta is a central hub for us,” according to Charles Michell, D&PL’s vice president – U.S. operations (pictured). “The Indianola warehouse will become our primary warehousing and distribution center for the Mid-South.”
