Chuck Capra Named Executive Vice President of Hermann Warehouse

Author : Hermann Services

At Hermann Warehouse, Chuck Capra has done it all. Joining the company in 1982, he started his career in warehouse logistics in general labor picking orders and loading trucks. Over the past three decades he has continually risen up the ranks to account management and supervisory positions and for the last 10 years was Warehouse Manager.

Now thirty years after his first day on the job, he has been named Executive Vice President, Hermann Warehouse. In his new position, Chuck will be taking on the increased responsibilities of procuring new customers, servicing existing customers, and developing competitive rates. He will also manage the Hermann Warehouse workforce at Hermann Services’ New Jersey and Delaware warehouse facilities. Chuck will also oversee an investment in the division’s infrastructure that will include increases in racking, density, and overall capacity of warehouse space. He reports directly to Richard J. and Dennis W. Hermann, Co-Presidents of the Warehouse Division.

“During my career at Hermann Services, I have had my hand in every major warehouse account we have served,” Chuck says. “What I am most proud of is playing a role in providing our customers with tailored solutions that exactly match their requirements and achieving very high levels of customer satisfaction as a result.” Perhaps Chuck was born to a lifetime career in warehousing.

His father, Charles Capra, served as Vice President of Operations with Hermann Services until his retirement in 2002. His brothers

John and Jim also hold management positions with Hermann Warehouse.

“When we say that Hermann Services is family owned and operated, I like to think that encompasses my family too,” says Chuck. “When I put the key in the lock to open up the doors for the day, I treat it like it’s my own house. I take a lot of personal pride in working with Hermann Services.”

Supported by Hermann Transportation, Leasing, Packaging and Logistics, Hermann Warehouse excels in storage and total distribution of food and flavors, commodities, paper products, retail merchandise, and chemical and HAZMAT materials. The Hermann Warehouse workforce has enjoyed a very long tenure with the company and receives ongoing training in safety and materials handling.

“Our team is second to none,” adds Chuck. “We know how to get the job done!”
