[Burnsville, MN - April 8, 2024] - Irby Utilities (Irby), a leading distributor of utility materials and integrated solutions, today announced the grand opening of its new branch in Burnsville, Minnesota. After over a decade in Eagan, the company has relocated to a vastly larger facility at 12501 Dupont Ave South to accommodate outstanding growth across the upper Midwest states.
 
The facility triples Irby's previous warehouse capacity in the region, enabling Irby to broaden its product offerings to meet rising demand for electric, gas, and fiber utility solutions. The new branch also offers an upgraded training room, conference space, dedicated meeting rooms, kitting/packaging areas, and multiple drive-in and dock doors for enhanced logistics.
 
"Irby’s new world-class warehouse allows us to vastly increase our support for valued utility customers throughout the region," said Chad Backes, District Manager at Irby Utilities. "Along with our expanded footprint, we've added specialists across our core business segments and are poised to deliver an unmatched level of service."
 
Irby invites customers, vendors, industry partners, and community members to a special Grand Opening event to commemorate the new Burnsville branch and its capabilities. Attendees can tour the facility, meet the Irby team, and explore partnership opportunities. The event will be held on April 18th from 9 am to 3 pm; contact your local Irby representative for more information.
 
"We could not have made this leap without the incredible support of our customers, the hard work of our employees, and the backing from Irby and our parent company, Sonepar," added Backes. "My gratitude also goes to our partners at Shaw Construction and Capstone Quadrangle for their collaboration in delivering this exceptional new facility."
