HUNTSVILLE, Ala., Nov. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lakeland Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: LAKE)<\/strong> (\u201cLakeland\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a leading global manufacturer of protective clothing for industry, healthcare, and first responders, today announced the next phase of its strategic expansion via its recently acquired subsidiary<\/a>, California PPE Recon, Inc. (\u201cCalifornia PPE\u201d). With the lease of a new 8,000 square-foot facility on a half-acre parcel in Fresno, CA, California PPE is positioned to significantly expand its service footprint, strengthen operational capacity, and introduce additional service offerings to support its growing customer base in the California firefighting market and beyond.<\/p>\n

\n Facility Expansion to Support Growth<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

California PPE has executed a lease for a newly-secured 8,000 square-foot facility strategically located in Fresno, CA and sized to accommodate its expanding operations. This expanded footprint will enable greater throughput of decontamination, inspection and repair services, rental gear logistics, and increased training capacity for fire service clients. The half-acre site allows for ancillary support space, equipment staging and vehicle access, positioning the business to scale efficiently as demand grows.<\/p>\n

The upgraded facility ensures California PPE will more effectively serve its existing Southern California fire department customers while enabling Lakeland to leverage this platform to extend services into additional public safety markets.
