Staples Closing DC in Canton, Ga.
Framingham, Mass. Staples is closing its distribution center in Canton, Ga., eliminating 89 jobs.
The chain acquired office-supplies wholesaler Corporate Express, which has its own delivery network, in 2008. Since the acquisition, Staples has been trying to integrate its own delivery system with that of Corporate Express.
The company's review of its delivery networks meant that the Canton warehouse and DC was no longer needed.
