Light Industrial and Warehouse Staffing Solutions

Warehouses don’t run on empty shifts When you’re short‑staffed, orders pile up, costs rise, and your team feels the squeeze. The wrong hire can make it worse — missed deadlines, safety risks, and mistakes that slow everything down.

What you really need are people who show up, work hard, and keep things moving. The kind of talent you don’t have to second‑guess.

 

At KORE1, we make that happen.

  • Shifts are covered.
  • Operations run smoother.
  • Managers lead instead of scramble.

That’s the KORE1 way- real people, real results, no drama.

The Challenge Hiring Managers Face

Running a warehouse or distribution center is tough. Staffing should not make it tougher.

  • Shifts go unfilled and deadlines are missed
  • Workers quit after a week, forcing you to start over
  • Overtime costs spiral when your team covers gaps
  • Untrained hires create safety risks and costly mistakes

You deserve people who show up, do the job right, and help your business run smoothly.

Old-School Recruiters. Modern AI Talent.

We get people. That means going beyond resumes to assess the real fit.

Every AI or ML candidate we present is technically vetted by people who’ve hired these roles before.

We move fast without sacrificing quality. We only present candidates that fit your team and goals.
