JoAnne Stores had been supplying nearly 700 fabric and craft stores from a centrally located distribution center (DC) in Hudson, Ohio, when expansion forced changes.

They have a couple of aisles of other things: a few hayracks, garden art, stepping stones, a few windchimes, shepherd’s hooks, and some little decorative items.
