Building Brands and Developing People
Pros
Easy work if your not lazy.Cons
It’s a little far from my house.Starting from from two trucks and a warehouse in Atlanta, GA in 1940, Empire is now in its third generation of family leadership. But David and Michael Kahn, today’s company leaders, have something their grandfather and founder, Max Kahn, never had – the backing and resources of Berkshire Hathaway. This partnership has allowed us to grow rapidly while constantly investing in our distribution facilities, fleet, technology and people so we can offer our brands every advantage possible.
80 Years of Empire
From our very beginning, we’ve filled each day with passion and enthusiasm for this industry. We have one simple mission: being the very best at Building Brands and Developing People. Our brands and our Teammates are the backbone of Empire, and we strive to get better every day.
Teammates enjoy working with other committed, passionate and knowledgeable people. We think of our people as Teammates rather than employees because we share common goals and compete together to achieve victories for our brands and customers.
Through 80 years of growth we continue to be a family operated business – and we do our best to treat all of our Teammates like family. We always encourage conversation and collaboration. We support our people by continually investing in our facilities, delivery fleet and technology to make everyone’s job safer and more productive. And we value work-life balance and seek ways to enrich our Teammate’s lives outside of work as well.
