Safelite AutoGlass is leaving downtown for a new 25,000-square-foot warehouse at 8804 E. 34th St. North near K-96.
“It’s a better, more visible location,” says Randy Randolph, vice president of real estate and market development for the Ohio-based company.
The company currently is at 701 E. Murdock.
“When they put the overpass in, it really cut the visibility of our location down on Murdock,” Randolph says of the train overpass that was built a few years back.
Safelite will be the first tenant in the new space on East 34th Street.
“It needs to be built out,” Randolph says.
The company likely will move in January or February.
The new building mainly will be a warehouse for Safelite.
“It’s also where we’ll dispatch our mobile technicians,” Randolph says.
About 90 percent of the company’s business here is with mobile technicians repairing or installing new glass in cars at customers’ homes or offices.
Safelite is in all 50 states.
“Wichita’s always been a very good market for us,” Randolph says.
“We think it’s a positive move forward for us, and we’re looking forward to getting in the new home.”
