We started in 2018 with two delivery routes for Amazon and before the end of the first week, our Founder and CEO was on the road delivering packages herself to ensure that an employee calling out from work wouldn't keep SMI from fulfilling its commitment to its customers. This simple act illustrates the mission and values of SMI and informs every aspect of our operations from who we hire to how pursue our vision for growth.
