Sales Associate - Confidential #d051

We are a fast-paced and fast-growing global fresh produce company. We source from over 12 countries and supply retail, wholesale, and foodservice partners across the country and countries abroad, with a core focus on citrus, grapes, and pomegranates.

We are looking for a sales associate to join our team in-person at our headquarters in Northern New Jersey.

What You’ll Do

• Build and maintain new and existing relationships with retail, wholesale, and foodservice customers for consistent product flow.
• Prospect and develop new accounts and opportunities
• Coordinate closely with procurement and logistics teams to align supply with sales
• Monitor inventory, arrivals, and market conditions to support sales decisions
• Support daily sales activities including order entry, pricing, and customer communication
• Communicate product availability, quality updates, and promotional opportunities to customers
• Help resolve issues related to quality, delivery, or claims in a timely and professional manner
• Track sales activity and maintain accurate records in internal systems
• Participate in customer meetings, calls, and occasional industry events
  

What We’re Looking For

• 1–3 years of experience in fresh food sales, produce preferred (but not required)
• Strong communication skills and ability to build relationships quickly
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple moving pieces
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, time-sensitive environment
• Willingness to learn the produce industry and supply chain in depth
• Team-oriented mindset with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
• Proficient with basic systems (Excel, email, ERP systems like Odoo is a plus)
  

What This Role Is (and Isn’t)

• This is a hands-on, in-person role — you will be in the middle of daily operations
• This is not a passive account management job — you will be expected to think, react, and contribute
• This is a role where you can grow into a full sales role or business leader as you develop
  

Why Us

• Work directly with leadership and gain real exposure to decision-making
• Be part of a company building direct grower relationships and expanding globally
• Opportunity to grow quickly based on performance, not tenure
• Learn a business where sales, operations, and strategy are fully connected
  

If you’re looking for a role where you can learn fast, take ownership, and grow into something bigger, we’d like to meet you.
