GEMCO Medical Announces New Salt Lake City Distribution Center, Expanding Service Across the Western U.S.

Salt Lake DC Ariel PhotoHudson, OHIO, January 20, 2026 – GEMCO Medical, a leading national wholesale distributor of medical supplies, announced today that it will open a new distribution center in Salt Lake City, Utah, in the summer of 2026. The facility will expand capacity, accelerate delivery times, and enhance service levels for customers across the Western United States.

The Salt Lake City distribution center will operate as a fully licensed, NABP ADD-accredited fulfillment facility and support GEMCO Medical’s growing healthcare-compliant third-party logistics (3PL) services. Designed with advanced fulfillment capabilities, the site will receive, store, and distribute a broad range of medical supplies, helping meet increasing customer demand while maintaining high standards for accuracy, reliability, and compliance.

This new distribution center represents a major investment in our customers and the future of GEMCO Medical. Building on the expansion of our headquarters distribution facility in 2021, this next phase of growth reflects our commitment to scaling our infrastructure alongside customer demand. Expanding our footprint in the Western U.S. enables faster deliveries, new service levels, and a consistently better customer experience.

Matthew Edwards, GEMCORE’s CEO

Once fully operational, the facility will increase overall inventory capacity and improve order cutoff times for same-day and emergency shipments. It will also provide additional redundancy to GEMCO Medical’s distribution network, strengthening business continuity during regional disruptions.

“Growing our network allows us to deliver more than speed—it builds resilience,” Edwards added. “Multiple distribution centers help ensure continuity of supply, so our customers can remain focused on caring for the people who rely on them.”

Salt Lake City was selected for its proximity to major transportation corridors and carrier hubs, as well as its central location relative to a rapidly expanding Western U.S. customer base. The new facility aligns with GEMCO Medical’s long-term commitment to dependable service, operational excellence, and nationwide reach.

The distribution center is expected to be fully operational in summer 2026.
