Packer Fastener opened a distribution hub in Pearl, MI, to serve commercial contractors, manufacturers, and fabricators across Mississippi and the Southeastern U.S. Sectors served include data centers, EV battery and automotive plants, power generation, and industrial construction.

The new hub will have a direct line to Packer Fastener’s Atlanta distribution center, allowing procurement managers, project managers, and job site superintendents to keep operations moving without schedule delays.

“Our presence is about expanding our reach to even more communities,” said CEO Terry Albrecht. “The new hub in Jackson is backed by the strength and resources of our Atlanta distribution center.”

Founded in 1998, Green Bay, WI-based Packer Fastener is a threaded fastener and industrial supply distributor employing 160 people at 11 branches in the Midwest and serves customers across the U.S. The family of companies now also includes Packer Freight, a freight brokerage and logistics company; and specialty fastener manufacturer Albolt Manufacturing.
