On Wednesday, October 9th students from Clairemont’s Academy of Business were given the unique opportunity to tour WD-40’s corporate offices in the Scripps Ranch Business Park. In addition to a tour of various departments, students interacted with a panel of employees from the legal, supply chain, and marketing departments.
Employees talked about the 6 core values of the company with the first being: “We value doing the right thing." Employees emphasized the terrific family-like environment that they work in.
WD-40 employs 130 people in San Diego and has 500 employees globally. They sell their products into 176 countries and have plants in Missouri that can fill 300 cans per minute with automation. They also are proud supporters of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals by not using cancer causing agents in their products. They specifically focus on goal #3 Good Health and Well-Being, and goal #12 Responsible Consumption and Production.
