At Gills Onions, we know we are nothing without our partners. We’ve had the opportunity to join with amazing companies to innovate and improve our processes so that we can keep delivering the highest quality onions available on the market – all while prioritizing food safety and sustainability.

Redzone is the perfect example. Our partnership with Redzone empowers our employees from the ground up to increase productivity. Together we collaborate to create a better work environment and even higher quality products.

What Is Redzone?

Through its technology and coaching processes, Redzone helps create an environment where our employees can better understand their performance and communicate with each other to help deliver improved results. Its solutions focus mainly on overall equipment effectiveness and helps companies implement them with personalized coaching on how to use data and how to improve systems and processes.

Redzone believes in continuous improvement, and it gives employees on the floor a voice. With Redzone’s software, operators  can correct inefficiencies faster and use real-time data to make real-time improvements to operations.

With these insights, Redzone also supports companies as they meet compliance requirements. They can easily measure and demonstrate how the floor is running, the quality of product that is being produced, and everything that is happening with the equipment. All in all, it gives everyone complete visibility into the biggest drivers in a manufacturing plan.

Partnering with Gills Onions

There are many ways that partnering with Redzone benefits Gills Onions. For example, in manufacturing, there are typically stacks of paperwork. Operators are always filling out various forms — from tracking time to carrying out compliance checks or completing PMs for maintenance. Everything Redzone does takes organizations to a paperless environment, eliminating waste and increasing speed and accuracy. A paperless environment also makes it quick and easy to onboard new employees.

Redzone helps our team identify where waste occurs and, with guidance from Redzone coaches, identify how to streamline processes like startups or change overs to be more effective.

All of this helps fuel Gills Onions’ goal to be a zero waste facility and prioritize sustainable business practices. And, it improves communication across all levels of our organization.

Working Together to Do Onions Better

“We have been partners with Gills Onions for several years, and it is amazing to work with someone like Steve Gill who is such an innovator,” says Charlene Jaehne coaching director at Redzone. “One of the things that really makes Redzone work is leadership buy-in and participation, and since day one, Steve has done a wonderful job getting his leadership team to get behind what Redzone is all about.”

All of the teams at Gills Onions have embraced the advantages that Redzone brings to the table and have made it part of our company culture. The software allows us to continuously gather essential information that helps us improve and be more efficient. That means we can focus on what we do best – producing the world’s most delicious onions.
