  • A Commitment to Our Purpose (COMMITTED PEOPLE) - Our mission is to serve and build up our customers, suppliers, communities, and each other, guided by the principles of our Lord Jesus Christ. The commitment to serving and building up is easily seen in those employees that exemplify this value.
  • Without Our Customers We Are Nothing (CUSTOMER FIRST) - We realize that we are blessed to serve our customers and without them, our company does not exist. They rely on us for their success and that is a responsibility we cannot take lightly. Our focus must be on serving them with as seamless communication and access to products as possible.
  • Kind, Humble and Positive (HUMBLE) - These positive traits do not mean being a doormat to others. But when a person is kind, humble and positive it comes through in their genuine caring for those around them.
  • A Desire For "Expert" (EXPERTS) - Our people want to be seen as the experts in their specific roles. From how we convert a bag efficiently and with highest quality, to knowledge of the product portfolio, to desiring to know more about tax or human resource policy - the desire for "expert" drives us in each of our roles.
  • Intentional Growth - Developing of Self and Others (PERSONAL GROWTH)- Times, tools, and customer expectations change. Our team members are interested in developing themselves and those around them. We know that a stronger team is one that makes our customers and our fellow employees happier.
  • Strong Work Ethic (HARD WORKERS) - The commitment to serve those around us is honorable and we respond to this by putting our strongest effort into that purpose.
  • High Expectations of Self and Others (HIGH EXPECTATIONS) - We expect ourselves, and those around us, to put in our best effort. When others struggle, we help them align towards perfection. When we struggle, we are open and humble to hear it and course-correct accordingly.
  • If It Isn't Safe, We Don't Do It (SAFETY) - All people deserve to return home to their loved ones safely and work in an environment where they can best execute their tasks safely. When choosing between safety and profit, safety and efficiency, safety and feelings, safety, and "x" - we choose safety.
