MIAMI, Fla. — Contemporary furniture and accessories specialist Zuo Modern has relocated its Miami distribution facility to better serve its East Coast, Central and South American customers.

The facility has over 100,000 square feet of warehouse, office and showroom space. It also has an 8,000 square foot showroom to show the company's complete line, including outdoor and accessory items.

Zuo Modern also said in a press release that Erika Torres from its Mexico office will run the company's Latin America supply chain management and will help manage the company's Miami office and showroom and sales.

Torres will be based out of Miami.

Further details on the distribution facility were unavailable at press time Friday.

"This is an exciting opportunity to grow our distribution and brand into Latin America while better servicing our East Coast customers. 2011 is going to be a great year," said CEO Luis Ruesga, in a press release.

Earlier this year the company opened a 120,000 square foot headquarters and warehouse facility in San Leandro, Calif.
