Yamaha Electronics Corporation Expedites Product Delivery To Dealers From New Central U.S. Warehouse

Company’s New Chicago-Area Facility Enables Most US Dealers Now Receive Standard Shipments in 1 to 4 Days

September 22, 2008

Yamaha Electronics Corporation, the innovator in home theater, digital audio and video reproduction, announced today that it has established a new centrally-located warehouse in Elwood, IL, to expedite product shipments to Midwest and east coast dealers. The new facility, which is already shipping product, joins the company’s existing Southern California warehouse operations to ensure that most U.S. dealers receive their orders via standard shipping faster than ever before – from one to four days, depending on dealer location. UPS Ground shipments are now one to three days for most of the dealer base, versus four to five previously. “With the Chicago-area warehouse, we significantly reduce the time it takes to deliver products to most of our dealers,” said Art Serksnas, General Manager, Finance & Administration, Yamaha Electronics Corporation. “Shortening the distance products need to travel also guards against issues such as mechanical failure and weather conditions that often affect delivery times.” For more information, write Yamaha Electronics Corporation, P.O.
