BNSF Railway Co. will open a new intermodal facility in Oklahoma City in mid-November as a result of a partnership with Hobby Lobby Stores Inc.
The Oklahoma City-based retailer was seeking a more economical route for moving containers from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach to the network of Hobby Lobby distribution centers in the city, BNSF officials said in a press release.
"We are excited to offer this unique solution to Hobby Lobby, which creates a much more effective supply chain and at full potential could eliminate up to 40,000 truck moves off the highway each year," said BNSF Group Vice President of Consumer Products Jon Gabriel.
In the future, Oklahoma farmers and other businesses will be able to use the facility for exports to the West Coast.
