Our Operations
Warehousing techniques in the feed industry haven’t changed much in the last 40 years. Here at NewStar, we’ve invested in state-of-the-art technology which will create a large efficiency and food safety gap between ourselves and our competition.
By utilizing VNA (very narrow aisle) infrastructure and installing heavy-duty racking up to 30 feet high, NewStar will be able to maximize storage capacity while minimizing square footage, energy, and manpower. The efficient use of space allows that every pallet is aisle-facing and easy to access, thus ensuring first-in-first-out and a high level of pest control.
We know we are in a highly competitive market and truly believe that advancements such as these will set us apart in the eyes of our customers and suppliers.
