Day 46

Monday, March 24, 2008

Today after class we took a trip to the new Stater Brothers warehouse and corporate offices in San Bernadino. We were welcomed by Jack Brown, Stater's CEO, Jim Lee, President, and several of their top executives. They spent the whole afternoon with us talking about the history of their company, what they do and how they've grown it over the years. We were then able to tour their new 2 million square foot warehouse facility which is the largest grocery warehouse under one roof in the United States.

Jack gave us a lot of personal insights into his life, what he thinks is important and how he treats his people. The whole experience was a real treat and it's just so nice that they're willing to give us this level of access.
