Medline has announced plans to open a new distribution center in Perris, California. The approximately 1 million-square-foot facility represents another company investment in its California and overall distribution network, adding capacity and operational flexibility to support healthcare providers across the state.

This expansion comes as Medline continues its recovery and customer-support efforts following the June 11 fire at its Tracy, California, distribution center. On July 6, Medline announced that it secured more than 1.6 million square feet of new distribution space in Northern California, reflecting the company's continued focus on maintaining service for healthcare providers across the state. Between this announcement and the addition of Perris, Medline's California distribution center footprint is expected to reach nearly 5 million square feet by mid-2027. These new facilities are expected to house many of the same technologies already in use at other Medline facilities.

IDI Logistics, a developer and operator of logistics real estate, is leading development of the Perris site.

"We could not be more thrilled to have formed this strategic partnership with Medline and believe they will be an impactful and thoughtful corporate citizen in the city of Perris for many years to come," said Charlie McPhee, senior vice president and regional director, west region, for IDI Logistics.
