Our Mission Statement: "To Conduct our Warehouse Activities with the Precision and Discipline of an Operating Room" Lakeside Plastics Distribution Center
Located
strategically between our two Manufacturing Plants, Lakeside Plastics
Distribution Center is a new 50,000 square foot facility, and is the
Central Warehouse for all Shipping, Receiving and Logistics activities.
In addition, it provides around the clock "Hub & Spoke" Inventory
Supply Services to our Manufacturing Operations.
The key ingredients of our formula for success include:
- Associate Safety
- Just in Time Shipping
- FIFO Stock Rotation
- Continuous Improvement
- The "Right Tools" for the Job
- Housekeeping and Organization
Together
with a Team of dedicated Associates, our Goal is to achieve a World
Class level of performance that delights our customers. | |  | Wireless (802.11b) Barcode scanners are one
of the "right tools" that enable us to track each individual package
within our facilities, from the moment it is produced until it is
shipped to our Customer. This ensures precise Order Assembly and
Shipment Accuracy.
Our
Warehouse Associates live and breathe a culture of Continuous
Improvement and Housekeeping. This culture has been a part of the
Lakeside Corporate "mindset" since we first opened in 1977. Our
Associates look for better ways of doing things, will not tolerate
waste of any kind, and believe that anything less than "Hospital Clean"
is not acceptable. It is our view that the best Warehouse people are
perfectionists, and that our level of Housekeeping is the primary
barometer of our systems' effectiveness.
It
is this type of Company-wide thinking that has enabled Lakeside
Plastics to grow steadily over the years, and will provide the means
for us to continue this growth into the future. |
