Magline Innovation 2014 Addresses Foodservice Warehouse Employee Recruiting

 

Standish, MI -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/05/2013 -- Recently, Karl Jensen, National Sales Manager for Magline, discussed how the company is addressing the challenges foodservice companies face in warehouse and delivery employee recruiting as part of the Innovation 2014 initiative. According to Jensen, “Employee recruiting and turnover is a significant issue as many firms are unable to find warehouse and delivery personnel with adequate skills willing to perform the needed tasks. This is a topic driving a lot of the early discussions with CooLift. Two customers in the foodservice arena recently shared this is a major problem for them. They are not able to attract the needed personnel to fill the openings or, they cannot retain the personnel due to injury or the physical nature if the work. CooLift is seen as a game changer for these two major foodservice companies in attracting and retaining drivers.”

Jensen shared that, “My background throughout most of my career has been grocery supply chain solutions. I have been with Magline, Inc. for a year and a half now. CooLift is not a “fix it” solution, but is a process change. I enjoy the consultative aspect of selling CooLift and seeing the customer get the big picture of process change and look past their immediate needs of cost savings. CooLift is bringing significant benefits to those who view the whole supply chain process. In some cases it is a complex analysis and others a simple process. Once evaluated and put in place, there are the significant gains to be realized and it is gratifying to see the support existing customers have who know life both before and after CooLift was introduced to their business.”
