- Careers
In this episode we're taking a special trip over to the Hawkeye State, which is Iowa for those who don’t know, to visit two different Nordstrom facilities that are crucial links in our supply chain. First, we'll head to our fulfillment center in Cedar Rapids where the folks are celebrating 25 years of service. Then we'll stop into our distribution center in Dubuque to help them celebrate 30 years. Each of these locations has been absolutely essential to the growth of our business, particularly with the rise of online shopping and an increased demand for speed. These teams process enormous amounts of merchandise from thousands of vendors to nearly 350 Nordstrom stores in over 200 cities across the United States, fulfilling online orders shipped straight to your home and fielding droves of returns, which in itself could be an entire episode. Literally everything we sell goes through these buildings, from shoes to apparel, accessories and jewelry and a whole slew of home goods. It's a mammoth undertaking and these guys manage it all extremely well. So, we're going to stop in to share our appreciation and sit down with several employees to learn about what it's like to be part of the massive machine that is the Nordstrom supply chain.
Thanks for tuning in to episode 30. We hope you enjoy it!
