Job Description

Shelves sell the product, and at this snack and confectionery wholesaler you'll keep them full, neat and priced right. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in Germiston; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

Check shelf prices against the promo list and fix wrong tickets.
Take orders from store managers and spaza owners on the sales app.
Open new accounts with taverns, spazas and independent retailers.
Handle returns and credit claims for damaged stock.
Run in-store tastings and demos on month-end weekends.
Track competitor pricing and new products in your area.

1 to 3 years of FMCG, merchandising or route sales experience
A valid Code 08 (Code B) driver's licence, for rep roles
Good with people from store managers to tuck-shop owners
You can work to daily and monthly volume targets
Physically able to lift cases and pack shelves

Nice if you have

Existing relationships with independent retailers
Your own reliable car for a car-allowance position
A sales or marketing certificate
