We couldn’t have asked for a better emcee than Margaret Magnarelli for the opening of our new 100k sq ft DMV-area warehouse in Lanham, MD.

Baldor was featured in a Bloomberg article on the rise of pandan in NYC's food scene. Pandan is becoming a must-have ingredient, known for its earthy sweetness and versatility in both sweet and savory dishes. Find out more about this trending ingredient and its many uses below.

Yesterday, we were excited to unveil our new 100,000-square-foot warehouse in Lanham, MD! With a presence in the area since 2012, we today serve more than 1,000 customers across DMV, and this major expansion will allow us to serve even more. Special thanks to State Senator Alonzo Washington, State Delegate Ashanti Martinez, Jolene Ivey from the Prince George’s City Council, Courtney Edmonds from the Prince George’s Chamber of Commerce, Captain W. Faris and Baldor leadership for making the start of this new chapter for Baldor so memorable. We’re also excited to welcome 65 new team members as part of this growth. “Our commitment at Baldor is to our customers, our vendor partners and our employees—everything we do needs to be a win for all three,” says TJ Murphy, CEO and owner, Baldor Specialty Foods. “As our business has rapidly expanded in the Washington, D.C. area, we knew we needed a facility that could match the pace of our growth and support our commitment to getting our customers the best products as efficiently as possible. At the same time, we wanted to maximize product sales for our vendors, and bring on more local farmers and producers, while also increasing career and salary opportunities for our employees. With this move, we believe we have hit the trifecta.” #BaldorDC #RibbonCutting #WarehouseExpansion
