In 2002, Senior Vice President J. Randy Lewis had an idea.  Since the company was investing in new technology to make distribution more efficient, why not create opportunities for people with disabilities?  While creating new systems, machines and processes, engineers intentionally used universal design concepts while creating the new equipment.  After Anderson, SC was selected as the site of the latest distribution center, Walgreen Co. met with agencies that provide employment services to people with disabilities to help plan a pipeline of qualified applicants for the 2007 opening of the center.  The last step was to create training opportunities for the new managers to help insure an inclusive workplace.
