Case Study: Kramer Beverage Company achieves better hiring decisions and reliable seasonal staffing with Wonderlic

Kramer Beverage Company - Customer Case Study

Kramer Beverage Company is a multi‑generation, family‑run beer distributor in Hammonton, New Jersey, with a large portfolio of national and regional brands. Faced with a seasonal swell—growing from about 125 year‑round employees to 165 in summer—Kramer needed to hire drivers, warehouse and office staff who could uphold the family legacy and demonstrate the necessary math, reasoning and workplace habits for safety and reliability.

To meet that challenge, HR manager Cindy Purdy uses the Wonderlic Productivity Index (WPI) and Wonderlic Personnel Test (WPT) to screen candidates for cognitive skills and work habits. The tests have proven invaluable in predicting on‑the‑job performance, helping Kramer make better hiring decisions, maintain the integrity of the Kramer name and effectively staff the busier summer months.
