Direct Supply has completed the construction of the first building in its previously announced $85 million expansion project at 6767 N. Industrial Road in Milwaukee.
The company is planning a 10- to 15-year expansion of its current headquarters, linking its nine existing buildings with seven multi-story connectors and adding more than half a million square feet of office space for up to 2,500 additional employees.
Direct Supply is a privately held, employee-owned company started in 1985. The company is the largest supplier of equipment for nursing homes, assisted living centers and retirement communities in the U.S. It also operates the nation's largest supply chain eCommerce network for those customers.
The company planned a ceremony today to celebrate the grand opening of the first building in the expansion. Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and other dignitaries were planning to attend the ceremony at the company's headquarters at 4 p.m.
