The new operation will allow a faster fulfillment of orders by taking advantage of a state-of-the-art warehouse while providing room for growth. Shipping products from the Jonestown facility will provide orders to customers from Maine to Florida within two days of order shipment.
"We are focused on the quick and efficient delivery of products to our customers at the best prices possible," said Overstock.com Chairman and CEO, Patrick M. Byrne.

Initially, the Jonestown warehouse brings 15 jobs to the area with additional jobs forthcoming as operations scale over the next few years. Overstock.com's primary warehouse will remain in Salt Lake City, Utah.
