Coastal Contacts Inc. has opened its first U.S. production and distribution facility, according to a company press release.

The facility is state-of-the-art and, staffed with 70 employees, operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, which enables Coastal.com to ship an order 24 hours after it has been placed on the

Coastal.com website, according to the release.

"The U.S. is our fastest-growing market, as evidenced by an increasing number of new and returning customers purchasing glasses from us every day," Roger Hardy, Coastal.com's founder and CEO, said in the release. "With our new U.S. production and distribution facility, we will be able to accelerate this growth by offering the same great quality and even faster service to our expanding U.S. customer base, which aligns with our overall strategy for continued expansion."
