How HR Hero helps Mexcor International streamline multistate compliance
Mexcor International builds consistency with HR Hero®
Mexcor International is a family-owned beverage importer and distributor with a rapidly growing portfolio of spirits, wines, and beers. With operations across the United States and a workforce spanning nine states, the company serves a diverse network of retailers, restaurants, and consumers. This wide footprint creates the ongoing challenge of managing complex HR compliance requirements while keeping policies consistent and up to date.
When Laura Jolly joined Mexcor International as HR manager, she brought with her years of experience using BLR® solutions. Having relied on them for more than 5 years across several organizations, she knew its tools could simplify complex HR processes. At Mexcor, she turned to HR Hero to streamline compensation planning, policy management, and compliance tracking across multiple states.
Mexcor by the numbers
- Nine states of operation
- Nationwide workforce
- More than 30 years in business
- Thousands of employees served annually
The challenge of managing compliance in multiple states
With operations in nine states, Mexcor’s HR team had to navigate overlapping and often conflicting federal and state requirements. Manual processes meant piecing together data from multiple sources—a time-consuming approach prone to errors.
The team’s biggest hurdles included:
- Maintaining compliance across nine states
- Finding accurate and up-to-date compensation data
- Avoiding the inefficiency of piecemeal solutions
- Reducing the time spent researching legal requirements
To move forward, Mexcor needed a single, cost-effective solution that could centralize resources and provide clarity without sacrificing accuracy.
Why BLR stood out
Because Laura had used BLR solutions for years in previous roles, she immediately thought of HR Hero when Mexcor needed an all-in-one platform.
“Originally, it was the fact that you had everything together. It wasn’t something I was having to piece together—I could find it all in one stop shop.”
How HR Hero simplified compliance and policy management
HR Hero gave Mexcor access to a comprehensive suite of tools, including:
- Compensation and salary benchmarking to guide pay decisions
- Employee handbook builder to simplify multistate policy management
- Compliance resources tailored to state and federal requirements
- User-friendly guidance that breaks down complex legal issues
“Having a source that pulls information together for me without having to go find it is extremely helpful and cost effective,” Laura says.
These features gave Mexcor’s HR team the ability to ensure compliance, manage compensation consistently, and save significant time.
“HR Hero has made it very simple for me to get a lot of these tasks completed quickly.”
The results: Saving time and reducing risk
Since adopting HR Hero, Mexcor International has:
- Consolidated HR compliance and compensation resources into one platform
- Reduced the time needed to research and implement state-specific changes
- Improved policy consistency across nine states
- Gained peace of mind knowing compliance resources are backed by experts
“The handbook edition is a huge one for me because we have about nine different states that we need to make sure we’re compliant with. Having something that pulls all of that information together is extremely beneficial.”
Looking ahead
As Mexcor International continues to expand its reach, HR Hero will remain a key partner in navigating complex compliance requirements and keeping policies consistent across states. With trusted resources at their fingertips, Laura and her team are confident they can adapt quickly to regulatory changes, support a growing workforce, and stay focused on driving the company’s success.
