While he concedes CalBox Group will leverage the re- markable benefits of AI, John Widera insists, “We’re stay- ing disciplined. We continue to evaluate the right timing for major capital investments,” expenditures that include the aforementioned robotic cart system to replace some con- veyor lines, the software that will support and manage op- erations, a new corrugator to replace its existing 98-inch corrugator at CalBox I, and another 50,000-square-foot building extension. “These decisions aren’t rushed. Capi- tal investments only make sense when ROI improves long- term efficiency and of course, quality customer service. Real progress still comes from fundamentals: disciplined operations, smart capital spending, reliable and loyal peo- ple, good suppliers and customers who trust you deliver on time. Here every job is a self-portrait of the person who performed it.” The Cal Box family succeeded beyond all expectations in arguably the most competitive corrugated market west of the Rocky Mountains. According to Widera, “Corrugated has always been a fundamental business built by entrepre- neurs. Their suppliers and leaders that are profitable, stay flexible and focus on niches will be the ones still standing. “The approval of collaboration will bring clarity rather than noise, certainty and context without conflicting opin- ions or dubious data, and encourage honest conversa- tions to earn trust and build relationships.”
