A third of the food we consume comes through warehouses and there is a good chance it’s one of the facilities run by the storage company. Think big freezers that store and transport food to places like grocery stores and distribution centers, so the demand is always high and right now they’re looking for several entry-level to more skilled employees.
“The case picking role, those would be more entry-level roles so we are looking for folks who can kinda have the ability to use simple math because you have to stack the palettes and so forth,” Drass said. "We have forklift drivers, high reach forklift drivers and we also have some needs for mechanics, people that do material handling maintenances refrigeration tech, things like that.”
The forklift jobs are more highly skilled and Drass said you would be amazed at how the operators roll around in their warehouses.
“We want to hire somebody that’s the right fit culturally and we want to pay them the right wage because many of our warehouses are in warehouse parks so there’s lots of competition,” he said.
Especially in the Inland Empire, places like Fontana, Hunter Park, Colton and many more locations that are listed on the company’s website.
