BMW Group opened its new vehicle distribution center at the Port of Galveston a year after breaking ground. The 44k SF facility will serve the New Jersey-based company's 45 BMW and Mini dealers in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas. More than 32,000 vehicles are expected to be imported at the new facility annually, reports the Houston Business Journal.
The two buildings sitting on 20 acres will house vehicle inspection, accessory installation, vehicle programming, maintenance and storage. WWL Vehicle Services Americas, a global provider of auto processing and outbound vehicle logistic services, owns and operates the facility. [HBJ]
