What are the responsibilities and job description for the Packaging Associate position at Laudisi Distribution Group?
Looking for a job? Look elsewhere.
Looking for a craft — at a place where you make something real, with your hands and your head, and it actually matters to people you may never meet? Read on.
We are Cornell & Diehl: a small, obsessively focused producer of boutique pipe tobaccos, made right here in South Carolina. The team works with real leaf, traditional methods, and carefully tuned machinery to create mixtures that collectors seek out, cellar, and argue about with the intensity some people reserve for wine or coffee.
We are part of the Laudisi family of companies, but Cornell & Diehl has the feel of a workshop: small teams, visible impact, and a direct line between what you do on the floor and what a smoker experiences in his pipe.
The role? You are the final set of hands before a blend reaches the person who's been waiting for it. Every tin you help pack gets opened, sniffed, and talked about by hobbyists who know the difference between "fine" and "this is special." You're the reason the weight is right, the label is correct, and the tin is sealed the way it should be. If you want your day's work to live in someone's pipe, cellar, and memory — not just on a spreadsheet — let’s talk.
What You'll Actually Do
Over time, if you're curious and attentive, you don't just "pack tins" — you start to understand what's inside them, why it matters, and how your care at the end of the line reflects everything that came before it.
Cornell & Diehl is one of the few places left where you can learn a physical craft that people care deeply about. You'll see your work go out into the world in tins and jars, show up in collections and cellars, and get discussed by name.
What You'll Bring
While experience in a packaging, food, beverage, or manufacturing setting where consistency and sanitation matter would be nice, what we're really looking for is:
You Can Expect
This job isn't for everyone. It's for people who take pride in doing things right, who get frustrated when standards slip, and who want to be part of a team that actually holds the line.
If you're reading this and thinking, "finally, a place that gets it" — apply below.
If you're reading this and thinking, "Wow, they sound intense" — we probably are. And that's fine. There are plenty of other jobs out there.
But if you want to be part of something where your effort matters, where quality isn't negotiable, and where showing up means actually showing up?
We're building something here. Come help us build it right.
How To Apply

You're the reason the weight is right, the label is correct, and the tin is sealed the way it should be. If you want your day's work to live in someone's pipe, cellar, and memory — not just on a spreadsheet — let’s talk.
What You'll Actually Do
- Stay active and on your feet all day in a production space built around premium tobacco and the people working it.
- Weigh, seal, label, and box our various products — because precision here is what makes a tin feel right when it arrives.
- Pay close attention to details like taring scales and correct labeling; the small things that separate a professional operation from a sloppy one.
- Use basic computer skills to follow production lists and keep what's on the floor matched to what's on the screen.
- Work autonomously while taking clear direction from teammates and management, finding smart solutions to hit production goals.
- Follow health and safety guidelines and keep your workspace clean and organized.
Over time, if you're curious and attentive, you don't just "pack tins" — you start to understand what's inside them, why it matters, and how your care at the end of the line reflects everything that came before it.

What You'll Bring
While experience in a packaging, food, beverage, or manufacturing setting where consistency and sanitation matter would be nice, what we're really looking for is:
- You like working with your hands and your body — this is active, physical work — and you can stay focused on the craft.
- You take pride in doing the same task well, over and over, while still looking for smarter ways to do it.
- You have a real interest in pipes, cigars, or other "nerdy" hobbies where flavor, aging, and small details matter.
- Reliability: on time, present, able to work a Friday–Monday schedule and be someone others can count on.
- Basic comfort with computers for simple data entry and production tracking.
- Ability to lift and move 30 pounds safely, a valid driver's license, and the ability to pass a criminal background check.
- A steady attitude: teachable, respectful, and willing to work both independently and as part of a team.
You Can Expect
- Compensation and benefits: Competitive compensation; health, dental, and vision insurance; six paid holidays; generous PTO; 401(k) with 1:1 match up to 4% and no vesting period.
- Perks: casual dress (jeans and t‑shirts), tuition reimbursement, referral bonuses, year‑end bonuses, fresh fruit daily, paid luncheons, and regular company events.
- Growth: real opportunities to take on more responsibility as you master the work, improve processes, and show you can own outcomes—not just tasks.
- Culture: a passionate group of “Laudisians” who like the products, like the customers, and like working with other people who actually care.
- Reality check: we work around tobacco and smoke; many of us are enthusiasts. You’ll often be in smoking areas, so you’ll need to be comfortable with that.
This job isn't for everyone. It's for people who take pride in doing things right, who get frustrated when standards slip, and who want to be part of a team that actually holds the line.
