BING Beverage is a small, family-owned company located on the west side of Denver in Lakewood, Colorado.
The original BING (made with real black Bing cherry juice) was launched in 2007 and readily became a Colorado favorite.
Today, our four juice-based beverages (BING, BING Black, BING Raz, and BING Crisp) can be found in 42 states, in over 4,000 produce departments. Our products are great alternatives to any ready-to-drink offerings on the market today, and we need enthusiastic, motivated sales professionals to help us continue our rapid growth.
We are seeking a dynamic and confident Key Relationship Manager (KRM) with at least 2 years of experience selling brand-name consumer product goods (CPG) in retail grocery environments. Direct experience with products sold in produce environments is very helpful, but not critical.
