Quite frankly, there has never been a better time to be in the logistics industry, especially at Velocity International Group. In the last year alone, we have seen 173% revenue growth, are moving into a 40,000 square foot warehouse, and becoming a go-to warehousing and distribution partner for many of the companies you’ve heard of in Nashville and around the country. At Velocity, you aren’t just a number, and we look out for our team. I’ve personally worked in every position and started this company because I was unhappy with how my employer (another major logistics company) treated their employees and customers. Our employee-centric and customer-centric approach has driven our growth beyond where we could have even imagined when I started this company with one van from my apartment.
We know other companies also advertise that you are not just a cog in the wheel, and when you dive in, you realize that everything you were pitched during the hiring process wasn’t true. Unfortunately, most other companies can’t prove to you their commitment to employees and customers, but we can by answering two questions you should ask any potential employer.
What is your employee retention rate?
What is your customer retention rate?
Over the last year, we have retained 82% of our employees and 97% of our customers. But, of course, the numbers alone don’t mean anything. Behind those numbers, you’ll see the commitment and bond our team shares which is unmatched at most companies and has provided a backbone to retain employees and customers. We are here for the long haul and will do what it takes to ensure that every team member has success.
If you are motivated, value having input in your business, want to set your own goals with our guidance, want autonomy to do your job the way you see fit, and want endless growth opportunities, we’d love for you to join us!
