From Acme's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
We're one of the largest food service distributors in the region, serving restaurants, healthcare facilities, schools, hotels, and independent operators across a broad territory. Our sales representatives are the primary relationship between our company and our customers — advising on menu, product selection, and cost management, not just taking orders. We invest in training, product expertise, and the tools our team needs to run their territory like a business.
The Sales Representative is responsible for managing and growing an assigned territory of food service accounts. This is an outside sales role built on consultative selling: understanding each operator's business, recommending products and solutions that improve their margins, and serving as their primary point of contact with the company.
Manage an assigned book of business, driving profitable growth in case volume, gross profit, and account penetration.
Prospect and develop new accounts within the territory through cold calling, referrals, and in-person visits.
Conduct regular on-site customer visits to review inventory, present new and seasonal products, and identify opportunities to expand product categories within existing accounts.
Advise operators on menu development, product substitutions, food cost, and inventory management.
Partner with category specialists, culinary staff, and merchandising teams to deliver product demonstrations, samples, and category solutions.
Manage pricing within approved margin guidelines and prepare customer proposals.
Monitor account health, including credit standing, order patterns, and service issues; coordinate with credit, operations, and delivery teams to resolve them.
Maintain accurate account, contact, and opportunity records in the CRM and use reporting tools to plan territory activity.
Stay current on product lines, supplier programs, market conditions, and competitor activity.
