Hermann Services Expands Operations with New Houston Warehouse

This 181,000-square-foot facility will be a valuable addition to our existing network of warehouses, and it’s also conveniently located in close proximity to major ports and railways like:

• The Port of Houston
• Barbour’s Cut
• Bayport Container Terminal
• BNSF Railway
• Union Pacific Railroad
• Reliance Rail International

This location will also have 6 electric heavy duty truck parking spots, ample truck parking, and a 20,000-rack space capacity with a 36′ clearance. Our fully customizable warehouse will provide endless possibilities to support the supply chain in Houston!

A Shared Vision for the Future

Staff across the entire Hermann organization are excited for the new warehouse in Houston. Karen Huffman, Warehouse Operations Director for the South Region, states, “The excitement for our newest location in Houston is felt by our employees and customers! With this state-of-the-art facility, we will continue to provide excellent service to our clients, even more efficiently as this location is so close to the port. From the groundbreaking in March 2024 to seeing the building take form, the excitement has not waivered!”

A Commitment to Innovation and Tradition

Our warehouse in Houston, Texas, reflects our company’s commitment to innovation and tradition. With its industrial-modern design, the facility blends our historical roots with contemporary functionality. The lobby will showcase ‘OT-2’, a replica of our founders first truck used by Hermann Services in the late 1920s, serving as a testament to our longstanding history.

It will also contain two floors of offices and meeting rooms, supporting our core values of collaboration and communication for our talented staff to work on our valued customers’ supply chain needs.

A Strategic Location for Growth

As with all our facilities, we aim to offer warehouses near you, located near major transportation routes, and that support local economies. This Houston warehouse is only five miles from the Port of Houston and less than twenty to Barbour’s Cut Terminal and Bayport Container Terminal. With short distances such as these, we can offer quick and efficient port drayage services as well as transloading support.

The bustling city of Houston is known as a major hub for imports and exports.  In 2022, the Port of Houston’s annual container volume increased by 14% to 3,974,901 Twenty-Foot Equivalent Units (TEU). This port receives a variety of cargo like chemicals, consumer goods, plastics, and more. With seamless access to the Port of Houston and a wide range of material handling and storing capabilities, this facility will be equipped to handle a variety of storage and cross docking needs, greatly expanding our capabilities in the area for importers, exporters, shippers, and manufacturers.

“Since joining Hermann, I have been looking forward to this new building. Being part of the group that was involved in the demolition of the original building on this property and now the construction of the new building, I feel grateful to see this amazing expansion of our organization in Houston,” said Angel Carrion, Houston Warehouse Manager. “With such a strong foundation in New Jersey, this building sets us up to grow in the same manner in the Houston area. Becoming a name in Houston that is synonymous with excellence within the community and the city of Houston, I can’t wait to see what’s next for us!”

A Bright Future in Houston

As Hermann Services continues to expand our operations, this warehouse stands as a testament to our commitment to innovation, tradition, and providing exceptional service. With its strategic location near the Port of Houston and state-of-the-art facilities, we’re well positioned to meet the growing demands of the region’s businesses. We look forward to continuing to serve our customers and contributing to the economic growth of Houston.
