WARMINSTER, Pa., Feb. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul has
ceased operations at its Kar-Go Decal graphics and printing
facility located at 96 Louise Drive.
U-Haul continues to own the property but plans for the building
are still being considered, plant president George Palovcak confirmed. The last day of
Kar-Go Decal operations was Feb.
10.
The property was acquired in 1979 and for nearly four decades
served as the graphics and printing arm of U-Haul International,
Inc., which is headquartered in Arizona. The facility printed the famous
SuperGraphics that adorn the sides of U-Haul trucks and trailers,
as well as the imaging, signage and banners displayed at U-Haul
stores across the U.S. and Canada.
Restricted space was one factor in the decision to close
Kar-Go Decal as U-Haul pursued other means to better meet its
needs. U-Haul sometimes closes stores and other entities for
reasons such as physical limitations; long-term strategic plans;
shifts in demographics; trends in migration; expansion of its
neighborhood dealer network; and the proximity to new or existing
U-Haul stores and plants.
