Williams-Sonoma place settings for 821,502 SF in Arlington

ARLINGTON – San Francisco-based Williams-Sonoma Inc. has leased the newly developed Arlington Commerce Center, an 821,502-sf distribution center at 4900 Sherry St. near I-20 and State Hwy. 360.

"They decided to put a distribution center in Dallas-Fort Worth for a lot of the same reasons other companies are looking here," said Chris Teesdale, an executive vice president for Colliers International, who represented Williams-Sonoma in the deal. “This strategically fit their supply chain model. This is a consolidation and expansion for them."

Williams-Sonoma is expected to hire more than 100 workers to operate its North Texas distribution facility. The company is working with the City of Arlington on an economic incentive package for the deal.

Williams-Sonoma is a specialty home furnishings and gourmet cookware retailer with annual revenues exceeding $4 billion. The retailer will also have a call center in The Colony.
