Tigercat Opens West Coast Parts Warehouse
Tigercat Industries is pleased to announce that it has opened a new 35,000 sq. ft. (3,250 sq. m) parts warehousing and distribution facility in Kelso, Wash. with a current stock of inventory valued at $3.5 million.

Tigercat’s increased footprint in the Pacific Northwest demonstrates ongoing financial commitments from Tigercat to grow its support capabilities and improve the customer experience—that is to improve responsiveness, decrease lead times and extend spare parts operational hours into Pacific time zone.
