Medline has opened a 1.3-million-square-foot distribution center in Katy, Texas, the Houston Chronicle reported Aug. 2.

"We're excited to grow in Katy, and we are grateful to Waller County leaders who shared our vision to expand here," Bill Abington, Medline's executive vice president for global operations, told the Chronicle.
