Blue Ribbon Fastener — an Illinois-based distributor of fasteners and other Class-C components — announced Jan. 17 the opening of a new warehouse in Dacono, Colorado.

The company said it plans to use the 10,000-square-foot space to “better service customers located in the Western U.S.” The new facility is the company’s second location outside of its warehouse in Skokie, Illinois.

“As demand for our fasteners and related services expands into new geographies, this strategically located Colorado facility enables us to get inventory in the hands of customers faster,” said Ben Lussier, Vice President of Blue Ribbon Fastener. “We’re thrilled that we now have the capacity to distribute fasteners to more manufacturers across the nation.”
