The company is reducing its U.S. local distribution center count by 25% and consolidating regional distribution and return centers. On the manufacturing side, Whirlpool announced the closure of its Supsa facility in Mexico, with refrigeration production shifting to its Ramos plant to improve scale and efficiency. The company estimates annual EBIT benefits of roughly $230 million from manufacturing changes and $60 million from logistics optimization once fully implemented.
