Merle B. Smith Opens Second Illinois Showroom, Warehouse and Training Facility

Merle B. Smith Company Inc. (Burr Ridge, Ill.) unveiled its second Illinois location in Elk Grove Village on Feb. 5.

The facility will act as a showroom and warehouse, as well as a 3,000-square-foot training center that can be used by clients or industry associations.

The new location was built because of a “great customer response” at the company’s first Burr Ridge location, said Brian Quinn, Merle B. Smith’s business manager, in a statement.

“The new expansion brings much excitement,” he said. “It will allow us to increase our footprint to better service Chicago area customers more effectively.”
