INDIANAPOLIS, IN — WĂĽrth Revcar Fasteners, a WĂĽrth Industry North America company, announced March 22 that it has fully leased the building at 1 Avery Row in Roanoke, Virginia. The distribution warehouse building, consisting of 387,558 square feet, had been occupied by the Home Shopping Network for the past 30 years. The building will be the single largest WĂĽrth facility in North America and serve as the new headquarters and primary distribution center for WĂĽrth Revcar – Industrial Division. The renovated space is expected to open in the third quarter of 2022. 

Revcar Fasteners was founded in Roanoke in 1969 and has been headquartered in the Roanoke Valley since. The WĂĽrth Group, the world’s largest industrial distributor and leader of innovative supply chain solutions,  acquired the company in 1996 as part of the WĂĽrth Industry North America network of companies. The company is a full-line/full-service assembly component supplier and an approved Level One Fastener Distributor to many US Navy and military accounts worldwide. WĂĽrth Revcar’s deep ties to the region guided the company as they conducted a thorough location search. Their initial investment is expected to be in excess of $5 million in office renovations, sustainable energy solutions, and warehouse infrastructure, with subsequent investments in warehouse automation and equipment to exceed the first phase of investment.

The new facility supports our customer-centric distribution strategy in North America while accommodating our growing team. As a family-owned company with a 75-year history, we are honored to play a role in the growth of the Roanoke area through our new building.”
