  • Visit several stores on a merchandising route and send photos of shelves
  • Help customers find products and carry heavy items to cars
  • Collect trolleys from the parking lot
  • Pack shelves from the back, rotating older stock to the front (first in, first out)

What you need

  • Available for weekends, month-end and public holidays
  • Polite with customers and happy to help
  • Grade 10 or matric

What you get
