Birkey's Farm Store Parts Distribution Center

Birkey's parts inventories are re-aligned on a consistently, diverting critical use parts to stores in need. This process means one location can sell out of a part in the morning and have it back on the shelf within a few days, making an almost seamless transfer and a consistent level of stocked parts in each parts department which is critical in the farming and construction industries. This is accomplished through Birkey’s Parts Distribution Center (PDC) and shuttle services. Here are some facts about our PDC operations.

Located strategically in the middle of our territory off I-55, I-74, and I-39 in Bloomington, IL.

Receives shipments from small package carriers, FEDEX, Lanter, and/or UPS every day to ship to the stores.
