When it comes to getting the right products to guests quickly, Target’s Distribution Centers play a major role. That’s especially important when it comes to transporting fresh food. To ensure our guests find high-quality, fresh produce when they visit Target stores, we’ve invested in Food Distribution Centers (FDCs).

This month, Target is opening a new FDC in West Jefferson, Ohio. Here are five quick facts about the FDC and Target’s Supply Chain:
