Our current distribution facility in Fond du Lac will be converted into additional manufacturing space, used to meet record demand for Mercury propulsion systems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Employees currently working at Mercury\u2019s distribution facility will be provided additional opportunities within the company. This new distribution center will also allow the Land \u2018N\u2019 Sea facilities to expand its offering to adjacent customers.<\/p>\n<p>The anticipated opening of the new distribution facility is scheduled for October 2022. The building is also being designed for LEED (leadership in energy and environmental design) Silver certification.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs demand for all our products continues to grow around the world, so does our need to grow our manufacturing, distribution, and production capabilities,\u201d said Drees. \u201cExpanding these facilities in Wisconsin and the opening of the new distribution center in Indiana will immediately give us the opportunity to meet the growing needs of our global channel partners.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4318\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4318\" style=\"width: 476px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/brownsburgsentinel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4318 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/brownsburgsentinel.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/Facebook-Like-Icon.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"476\" height=\"147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brownsburgsentinel.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/Facebook-Like-Icon.png 476w, https:\/\/brownsburgsentinel.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/Facebook-Like-Icon-300x93.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 476px) 100vw, 476px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4318\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Click on the LOGO.
