WHO THEY ARE:
Founded in 1926, our company aimed to support America's growth after World War I. During World War II, we became a key chemical supplier for a major aircraft manufacturer.

In addition to forklift operation, candidates will be expected to perform manual labor for picking orders and will-call requests. Maintaining cleanliness in the warehouse, work areas, break room, and restrooms is essential. Each employee is also required to conduct pre- and post-trip inspections of their forklift.


WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU:
