Lou's Police Distributors, Inc.About Us Lou's Police Distributors has been in business in Hialeah since 1954 and has served Florida law enforcement for decades. From our headquarters we supply firearms, ammunition, body armor, uniforms and duty gear to hundreds of agencies, thousands of individual officers, and a growing business-to-government and Caribbean export book. Our customers protect our families, our communities and our schools; what we ship is their readiness. Your mission demands readiness. Delivering it is ours. We are an FFL holder, ITAR and export licensed, and ATF compliant, and we are investing in technology and operations to build a company that scales. Job Summary The Warehouse Associate keeps product moving accurately through LPD's Hialeah warehouse: receiving inbound freight against purchase orders, putting stock away where the system says it lives, picking and packing agency and retail orders, and shipping them complete and on time. The product is uniforms, body armor, duty gear, footwear, ammunition and firearm accessories. Regulated product is handled under LPD's FFL procedures, as assigned and trained by the Warehouse Manager. The Associate supports the Firearms Sales team by organizing and restocking ammunition and firearm accessories, and takes on other warehouse and store-support work as assigned. This role owns one standard: every receipt and every pick is right in Odoo the same day it happens. Inventory accuracy is what lets Purchasing buy correctly, lets Sales promise correctly, and lets the retail floor sell what the system says is on the shelf. When the count is wrong, all three break. This is a floor job. It reports to the Warehouse Manager and works daily with the Police Supply and Firearms Sales teams, Purchasing and Receiving. Key Responsibilities Picking and packing: Pick agency and retail orders from Odoo delivery orders. Scan every item. Verify quantity, size and color against the order before it is packed. Pack so the product arrives the way it left. Coordinate with Police Supply production and outside vendors on multi-stage orders. Pick accuracy standard is 99.5% or better, measured monthly through helpdesk error tickets. Put-away and location discipline: Every item lives in its assigned Odoo location, and nowhere else. No unlabeled stock, no product staged on the floor overnight, no personal systems. If a location is wrong, fix it in Odoo and tell the Warehouse Manager. Returns and floor replenishment: Receive customer returns, inspect them, and restock or quarantine per SOP. Replenish the Police Supply and Firearms Sales floors from the warehouse daily, including ammunition and firearm accessories, and stage uniform items for the alterations team so the floor never waits on the back. Cycle counts and inventory adjustments: Count assigned locations weekly per the LPD Way cycle count SOP. Counts are blind. Variances are reported, never quietly adjusted; adjustments require Warehouse Manager approval and a written reason. Shipping: Build parcel and LTL shipments, print carrier labels and bills of lading, wrap and band pallets, and load trucks. Everything picked before the daily cutoff ships the same day. Hand-carry the exceptions to the Warehouse Manager, do not let them sit. Receiving: Unload inbound freight, count every line against the purchase order, inspect for damage and shortages, and validate the receipt in Odoo the same day it arrives. Label stock before it leaves the dock. Report every discrepancy to Purchasing in writing before end of shift. Safety, equipment and housekeeping: No one operates the forklift until trained and certified. Operate the forklift and pallet jack safely and complete the daily equipment check before first use. Keep aisles, dock and racking clean, clear and organized. Report an unsafe condition the same day you see it. A clean warehouse is a fast warehouse. Systems and data discipline: Odoo inventory and barcode, Microsoft 365, Teams and the AI tools LPD provides are used properly ever…
