Our Mission
To be the best at what we do in each market we serve.
Our Values
Since 1858, we’ve been building on a solid foundation based on our core values.
- Fairness and caring
- Trust and respect
- Generous listening
- Straight talk
Every interaction with a teammate, vendor or customer keeps these four core values in mind. Every teammate contributes to our successes and deserves respect, from our drivers and warehouse teams to our development program trainees to our most tenured profit center managers. We solve problems together and we aren’t afraid to ask for help when we need it. We’re quick to lend a hand and we use feedback to improve upon areas of opportunity.
At Hajoca, people come first. We are a financially-sound, privately-held company and we don’t report to stockholders. Our hiring practices are conservative to reduce turnover and build loyalty among our teammates. We don’t believe in over-hiring for a position and weeding out the poor performers; we only extend offers to the best candidates. Everyone on our team can roll up their sleeves and pull their own weight.
You’ll be given every opportunity to succeed, with comprehensive training and ongoing coaching to ensure you can do your best no matter your role. Sometimes life gets in the way of our ability to perform, and we get that. We are a family-oriented, flexible organization and we work with our teammates to get past obstacles together. If you make the effort, we’ll always meet you halfway.
- Provide exceptional, error free service and dependability
- Maximize profits and benefits for customers, vendors and ourselves
- Offer every teammate opportunities for personal and professional growth
- Operate in a professional and ethical manner.
