Values
We are built different
We play to dominate
Participation trophies don’t exist in our world. We don’t want to just be the best. We want to dominate.
Be delusional
We are going to change the global supply chain. We believe we will be the ones to do it. We never sacrifice long-term value for short-term results.
Outwork everyone
Being the best doesn’t come easy. We strive to be better today than we were yesterday. We work harder, longer, and smarter than anyone else.
Run into the fire
We confront the toughest challenges head-on. Sometimes we fail, but we brush ourselves off, adapt, learn, and push forward with resilience.
Be obsessed
We always go the extra mile. We are obsessed with our customers. We are obsessed with building a generational business. We are looking for people who are obsessed with being the best.
Stay honest
Take care of the work, and the work will take care of you. Leave your ego at the door. Work hard and good things will come your way.
