Walker SCM is pleased to announce that it has partnered with KONE, a world leader in the escalator and elevator industries, to expand its operations in Long Island, New York. With this partnership, Walker's dedication to providing excellent logistics solutions takes a big step ahead. Through this partnership, Walker SCM will optimize and support the JFK Airport Terminal 1 Redevelopment project in Queens, New York, by fusing its knowledge of warehousing and transportation with KONE's premier industry skills.

Walker SCM will outfit a warehouse in Bethpage, New York, as part of its Project Logistics services. This facility will supply material handling equipment and transportation services to assist KONE's involvement in the JFK Terminal 1 reconstruction project. Walker SCM's customized logistics services guarantee adherence to oversized load regulations and installation schedules. KONE's goods and services will be preassembled, staged, and stored in the warehouse. A key component of JFK's $19 billion rebuilding effort, this project emphasizes improved security, more taxiways, and first-rate amenities. Significantly, contracts worth over $2.3 billion have been awarded to Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (MWBE), and Walker SCM's participation shows its dedication to regional economic development.

President and COO of Walker SCM, Claudell Germain, stated, "We are thrilled to announce an expansion to our existing USA footprint, and more specifically, our northeast warehousing network." This Walker/KONE alliance is the first of what we hope will be a long and fruitful relationship. The project scope itself will have a significant influence on the local community and air travel in the northeast market, in addition to supporting a component of our core service offerings. We've already started talking about working on additional markets and are excited to work on more projects together in the future.
