For Tyler Clayton, Order Ful昀椀llment Lead at Pipestone
Veterinary Services, supporting farmers begins with ef昀椀cient
logistics. Having been with the company for six years,
Tyler leads a 10-person team responsible for ensuring that
the medications and supplies prescribed by PIPESTONE’s
veterinarians reach farms promptly and cost-effectively.
“We aim for over 99.2% accuracy on all orders, and our current error rate
is just 0.7%, which is top-class in the industry,” Tyler explains. His team
carefully monitors deliveries, making sure that products arrive at the right
place, on time, and without damage. This behind-the-scenes work is crucial
to PIPESTONE’s mission of Helping Farmers by not only diagnosing health
and nutrition issues but also ensuring that vaccines, medications, and general
supplies are sourced from the best vendors.
Tyler attributes his success at PIPESTONE to the company’s strong
values and mission. “I enjoy working with a group of people who are truly
committed to our mission of Helping Farmers. It creates a great community,
and every day is an opportunity for growth.” His advice for others? “Find a
company whose mission aligns with your values. When you truly buy into the
mission, the opportunities are endless.”
