Raymond Named to Forbes' America's Best Midsize Employers List for 3rd Consecutive Year

GREENE, N.Y., June 6, 2023 — For three consecutive years, Forbes has been honoring
The Raymond Corporation as one of America’s best midsize employers from the engineering and manufacturing sector. The list recognizes employers from among 500 companies, based on an independent survey and polling of an anonymous group of employees.

“This recognition is the result of all our Raymond associates working together to build on our successful 100-year history,” said Steve VanNostrand, executive vice president, The Raymond Corporation. “We are all very proud of this award and are committed to continuously improving career opportunities, recognition and our associate experience.”

Forbes determined the list of best midsize employers in partnership with Statistica, a world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. Statistica surveyed 45,000 Americans working for businesses with more than 1,000 employees to determine the list for midsize employers. Statistica collected anonymous responses through a survey that asked employees how likely they would be to recommend their employer to others; and gave respondents the opportunity to nominate organizations other than their own, as well as identify organizations they would not recommend to others.

VanNostrand said: “Raymond’s unwavering commitment to continuous improvement and supporting the advancement of our people and processes is the driving force behind our success in manufacturing and engineering. By prioritizing people development, we are able to deliver exceptional customer experiences and achieve excellence in all aspects of our business.”

The Raymond Corporation is hiring for more than 200 manufacturing positions on the first, second and third shifts, as well as for a number of engineering disciplines including, software, electrical, quality, research and more. Weekly on-site interviews are being held at its Greene, New York, and Muscatine, Iowa, locations, along with in-person and virtual job fairs held in June 2023.

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.
