DistTech Inc, Newbury OH, has relocated its Northeast Ohio trucking terminal to metro Cleveland to better accommodate the company’s changing customer base, according to DistTech information.

The carrier began operating from a facility near Broadway Avenue and I-77 in Cleveland in early April and has phased out its terminal in Newbury OH. The carrier’s headquarters remains in Newbury.

"Our Northeast Ohio terminal relocation is part of a larger company initiative to position facilities closer to where our customers have their operations," said John Rakoczy, chief operating officer for DistTech.

DistTech plans to leverage the rail system near the terminal to offer customers transloading services and also intends to extend local shuttle and storage options for liquid bulk commodities.

"Longer term, we anticipate adding more positions at the new Cleveland terminal as we attract additional customers and grow our business," added Rakoczy.
