Statement of
Corporate Principles
Excellence should be the main goal. Not only in the way we deal with customers but also in the way we deal with employees and suppliers.
Be a flexible and agile organization. Keep abreast of recent developments in the industry. Embrace new technologies to follow the ever-changing demands of the industry. Understand that change is good and that change is continuous.
Focus on the customer’s needs, wants, and desires, and satisfy or exceed their expectations. Recognize that our reputation is a major asset; cultivate it and use it. Quality is not an act but a habit.
Remember that people are important and they need to feel positive and secure. Keep the lines of communication open, and whenever possible, empower employees to make their own decisions.
Encourage and value an individual’s initiative and ambition, recognizing that extra effort not only profits the company but advances one’s self.
Create an environment that develops, attracts, and rewards excellent people for the long term. Refuse to accept poor performance.
Respect one another. Everyone is accepted for their capabilities and ability to do the job, not based on race, sex, religion, or position within the company.
Celebrate victories; encourage a sense of belonging and community.
Conduct business in a fair and ethical manner, guided by Biblical principles.
Recognize the value of a profitable organization and realize that sustainable profitability is essential in maintaining a successful business.
