C2 Wireless Inc. a distributor of wireless accessories, handsets, and parts, is opening a state-of-the-art distribution center in Grand Prairie.
The 65,000-square-foot facility will allow the company to scale up for continued growth and to maximize efficiencies.
A new facility at 3275 Trinity Blvd. in Grand Prairie will consolidate C2 distribution facilities in New York and California into one location, the Irvine, California-based company said in a release. Cutting-edge technology at the center will enable 250 percent greater productivity, thanks to a multi-zoned conveyor system that brings product to workers, C2 said. In addition, automated systems will scan orders, select product, print shipping labels, and determine the appropriate box size. The technology will allow workers to complete “more boxes per minute than any other system in the wireless industry,” according to C2.
C2 said the facility will operate under the new Tier 1 Warehouse Management System, and it will provide third-party logistics and a variety of value-added services such as kitting, packaging, labeling, assembly, and shrink wrapping to customers.
C2 wanted to establish a single distribution facility in the center of the nation because its New York and California locations had reached capacity.

“Our company had grown faster than our infrastructure,” President and founding partner Jay Sachdeva said in a release. “This move enables us to process hundreds of thousands of orders daily and provide cost effectiveness of having a single distribution location in the center of the country that’s four times the cubic volume of our previous two warehouses combined.”
Among the products that C2 Wireless distributes are headphones, speakers, phone cases, chargers, cables, adaptors, wearables, Bluetooth headphones, and VR headsets.
C2 said that it has found “top talent” in DFW, and that the management team for the new facility average more than 20 years of experience in operations and logistics. The company has recruited five operations managers from the region for the new facility.
