Commerce and warehouse systems for Bellingham, off I-495
Hartford Avenue, Depot Street and I-495
Does Kief Studio work in Bellingham? Yes.
Bellingham's 2020 master plan describes a town with two economies sitting side by side: nearly 1,000,000 square feet of retail off I-495, with the biggest employers on Hartford Avenue, and a run of warehouses and distribution centers that keep arriving because of how close the town is to I-495, I-95 and I-90. Kief Studio builds for both. Storefronts and inventory systems for the retailers, order and warehouse software for the distributors, and hosting on LTFI for all of it from our studio in Shrewsbury.
Retail is still the biggest employer in town, but the plan's own analysis says the main openings ahead are in health care and in warehouse and wholesale trade. A wholesaler that grew up on email orders and a shared spreadsheet hits a wall right about when its second building comes online. That is a good moment to put orders, stock and shipping in one system, built around how the floor already works.
