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.

• 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.

• 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.
