Border States Breaks Ground on New Distribution Center to Anchor Regional Expansion

Border States, one of the largest electrical distributors in the U.S., has broken ground on a new 300,000-square-foot distribution center in Fargo. The facility is part of a broader initiative to expand the company’s national supply chain footprint and improve service across the Upper Midwest.

Slated to open in late 2026, the new center will support operations in six states and 30 branch locations. It is the first in a series of planned distribution hubs aimed at increasing logistics efficiency and strengthening Border States’ position in key industrial, utility, and construction markets.

“This facility will serve as a model for future sites, helping us scale more effectively as we grow,” said Jason Seger, president and CEO of Border States.

The site is expected to create approximately 60 jobs in the Fargo-Moorhead region. It will incorporate automated storage and conveyance systems, along with flexible infrastructure designed to keep pace with changing logistics demands.

“With cutting-edge automation and smart inventory systems, we’ll be able to move product faster, reduce delivery times, and respond with greater agility to customer needs,” said James Sipe, executive vice president of supply chain.

Local leaders and business representatives attended the June 3 ceremony, which marked the start of construction, expected to continue into next year. The project underscores the company’s focus on long-term operational resilience.

Border States is a 100% employee-owned company headquartered in Fargo. It operates in 31 states with more than 3,500 employee-owners.
