BOULDER, CO, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FST Corp. (Nasdaq: KBSX), a leading manufacturer and marketer of steel and graphite golf shafts and a provider of other golf-related services, today announced it has approved plans to expand its fulfillment facility located in Garden Grove, California, adding an additional 5,424 square feet, or 155 percent, to its usable storage space.
Once completed, the expanded facility will total 8,922 square feet, giving FST a greater ability to strengthen operations and satisfy future sales demand.
Specifically, the expanded space is expected to alleviate congestion in the picking and packing areas and provide additional space for staging, overflow, and new stock-keeping units (SKUs). These improvements, in turn, are expected to result in faster order fulfillment, more accurate inventory tracking, fewer shipping issues or other customer service problems, reduced labor time on restocking and related functions, and easier-to-handle product promotions and rollouts.
“We’re thrilled to begin on this significant expansion of our storage capacity,” said FST Chief Executive Officer David Chuang. “This added space will not only allow us to strengthen and streamline many of our daily operations, but it will also permit us to more efficiently respond to increasing customer demand and give us far more control over how we scale.”
“We therefore expect it to contribute to top and bottom-line improvements in our financial performance going forward.”
The expansion of the Garden Grove Fulfillment Center is scheduled to be completed within 4-8 weeks.
