They recognize achievements in sales, market share, recruiting and community involvement – elements that, we believe, make Carolina Handling an employer of choice.

Joe Perkins, our EVP of Operations talks about careers in Supply Chain. At Carolina Handling, our focus is helping customers optimize their manufacturing, picking, packing and shipping operations and create higher levels of service for their end users. We consult with companies on how they can maximize operational capabilities and what equipment they can use to do that. And we identify inefficiencies and process gaps to help them create standards that remove waste. As labor shortages continue, companies are turning to automation equipment and systems to optimize operations, eliminate wasteful steps and allocate the resources they have correctly. When our customers seek to automate a process, 99 percent of the time it is not to eliminate a role. Oftentimes it creates a unique role within the facility. Another huge indicator of a positive supply chain forecast is private warehouse construction. For every warehouse that goes under construction, it pushes products and services sold and supported by the material handling industry. Private warehouse construction in the U.S. has grown from $7.05 billion in 2012 to $61.5 billion in 2022. Construction is expected to slow slightly in early 2024, followed by a rebound in 2025. Presently in our market—North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Florida’s panhandle— there is 110 million square feet of warehouse space being developed, with 370 million more proposed. And e-commerce is driving a ton of that development....Show more
