Employee Built, Customer Centered
Since being founded by Gary Redmond in 1989, Regional Access’s staff changed and grew often over the years, employing 125 people over our 20 year history, but it always gelled. Regional Access is a special place to work; fostering a team mentality; and encouraging us as part of a bigger vision. Many of us have been here since the early days, including Adrienne Sterns, our bookkeeper, hired in 1990 and still crunching our numbers today! Robin Born, who’s been with the company since 1991 remembers, “We really cared about Gary, Regional Access, and our success. We were very proud to be part of this eclectic and remarkable team; and still very much are.”
We all remember days when the Warehouse temperature never rose above freezing; only the fittest survived, but we loved it and many of us are still here today. Often then, as now, we delivered products on our way to work or home, for customers in a pinch. "Are you going to Ithaca, Watkins Glen, Buffalo?" Can you drop this order off?” Robin recalls one Upstate winter night driving to Buffalo to get products off a truck to deliver to a customer first thing in the morning in Corning. “This was not unusual; we have all done it. It is what we do. It is what we’re all about.”
