      Ready to Be the Secret Ingredient in Our Success?

      At Pacific Coast Fresh Co., we’ve been serving the Pacific Northwest’s food scene since 1977. What started as a family-run produce company has grown into one of the region’s top independent food distributors — supplying everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to dairy, proteins, and specialty goods. We believe in local roots, bold flavors, and unmatched service.

      We’re not just delivering food — we’re delivering freshness, quality, and relationships that feed communities. Ready to be part of it?

      Your role:

      You’re not just selling — you’re building partnerships. As our Food Service Sales Rep, you’ll drive growth by:

      • Pursuing new business and turning prospects into raving fans.

      • Managing relationships like a pro — solving problems, sharing insights, and keeping our customers ahead of the curve.

      • Collaborating with procurement, operations, and our incredible customer success team to deliver on-point solutions.

      • Staying sharp on market trends, competitor activity, and pricing strategies.

      • Hitting your goals — and then setting new ones.

      Your Impact:

      • Client Acquisition & Retention: Identify potential customers, initiate contact, and foster strong, ongoing relationships.

      • Product Promotion: Present and sell our diverse product range to new and existing clients, tailoring offerings to their specific needs.

      • Market Analysis: Stay ahead of industry trends, monitor competitor activities, and identify new opportunities.

      • Negotiation & Closing: Negotiate terms to achieve win-win agreements.

      • Collaboration: Work closely with internal teams to ensure seamless order fulfillment and customer satisfaction.

      • Sales Targets: Meet and exceed sales objectives, contributing to the company's growth and success.

      What You Bring to the Table:

      • Passion for the Food Industry: A deep appreciation for food and a commitment to delivering quality products to clients.

      • Proven Sales Experience: 2+ years of experience in foodservice or perishable product sales — you know your way around a kitchen AND a spreadsheet.

      • Relationship Building: Exceptional interpersonal skills to establish and maintain strong client relationships.

      • Strategic Thinking: Ability to develop and implement strategies to capitalize on opportunities.

      • Goal-Oriented: A self-starter mindset with the hustle to back it up.

      • Tech-Savvy: Proficiency with CRM software (we use HubSpot) and Microsoft Office Suite, particularly Excel.

      Why Join Pacific Coast Fresh:

      • Competitive base salary + uncapped commission potential.

      • Ongoing sales training & development.

      • Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), profit sharing & paid time off.

      • Access to seriously amazing produce through our employee program.

      • A tight-knit, energetic team that’s all about collaboration and celebrating wins.
