C and S Wholesale Grocers, Inc. Multiple Locations, New England

Project Key Features:
  • Ergonomics and smooth speeed control of Raymond trucks improved productivity.
  • Raymond trucks provided superior energy efficiency.
  • C&S has used hundreds of Raymond Double Deep Reach as well as Single and Double Pallet trucks.

C&S Wholesale Grocers is the 2nd largest food wholesaler in the United States. They are the twelfth largest privately held company in the United States. For over 85 years, C&S has provided first-class warehousing & distribution services to its customers. 

With warehouse space surpassing 4 million SF, C&S needed equipment that could handle steady use and harsh conditions 24/7. They chose Raymond trucks because of their performance, technology and flexibility. Raymond worked with C&S to develop trucks for their business that were rugged and could perform at very high heights.

Some of the advantages in using the Raymond equipment were the multi- function capability, AC technology and low maintenance. These features saved C&S a great deal of time. Operators were able to move increasing amounts of pallets in less time and with more efficiency.
