We do our own thing…together.
SCI members expect one another to support of our vision and culture through words and actions. As a start….
- Everyone matters so we all actively participate in communication events because we like to know what’s going on.
- Seek to understand, then to be understood by working together with a positive attitude and a smile. We communicate effectively, both written and verbally in English, sharing our ideas and listening to one another.
- We’ve got each other’s back and believe in our safety policies and practices and actively promote the safety of other members, because we genuinely want them to be okay.
- Our enthusiasm is contagious! We display an optimistic professional spirit in all interactions. We respect one another. The way we work together is contagious. We share it with all we meet along the way- business partners, customers, visitors, family and friends.
- Speak up. Your ideas and challenges count! Our team lives for innovation. We don’t ask why, but say “why not?” And we use our time wisely so we can prioritize what’s right for our business even when we are striving to change.
- Give your best – not the best, your best by jumping to developmental opportunities. We use our experience, training and knowledge to see challenges, ask questions, gather information and find ways to improve, as individuals and as teams.
Our customers like to work with us because we understand and follow our quality standards to maintain excellence in manufacturing, with particular regard to food safety requirements. Our members follow and support our safe practices and food safety standards, because we know it’s required by our customers, but also understand how important it is to their customers. In many cases, those products end up in our own homes.
We are proud of what we do and how we do it.
