Logistics Plus Re-Certified as a ‘Great Place to Work’ for Third Year

ERIE, PA (March 10, 2020) – Logistics Plus Inc., a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics and supply chain solutions, is pleased to announce that it has been re-certified as a great workplace by the independent analysts at Great Place to Work®. This is the third consecutive year that the company has been certified. According to the updated results, Logistics Plus ratings in many key categories were better than the 2020 best-in-class benchmarks set by the top 100 businesses in the United States.

Using validated employee feedback gathered with Great Place to Work’s rigorous, data-driven “For All” methodology, Certification confirms that at least 7 out of 10 employees have a consistently positive experience. At Logistics Plus, 96 percent of its employees say it is a great workplace compared to the top 100 benchmark of 91 percent. Employees also rated Logistics Plus higher than best-in-class benchmarks across numerous other dimensions, including justice, impartiality, collaboration, equity, leadership behavior, innovation, and engagement.


“I couldn’t be prouder that, with all of our growth the past few years, our employees continue to find Logistics Plus to be a great place to work,” said Jim Berlin, founder and CEO of Logistics Plus. “We have a passion for excellence and we’re always striving to grow. Growing is challenging but fun. Despite our growth, we still have very few rules other than ‘The Golden Rule.’ Treat people as you’d like to be treated … and make work fun, of course.”

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.
