How We Work
Sales
This allows your customer to do what they do best, make their product, because you’ve got it handled.
What size of customer will you work with? Almost any size, from those ordering a pallet of goods to multi-containers.
The questions you must ask yourself:
- How much money do I want to make?
- What type of problems do I want to solve?
- Do I like to talk on the phone for about 3-4 hours a day?
- Am I willing to travel occasionally (and do I have a current passport)?
We can’t answer these questions for you. But through conversation, we can determine if you are good fit for foodguys.
If you want help with something, you simply ask, sooner rather than later. We expect you to always have a “capture tool” available when getting advice. What does that mean? We expect you to take good notes, it can be on your phone or in a notebook, and we expect you to do it.
We believe that personal and professional growth is vital to everything we do. Learning something new, in turn will allow you to help others to grow. And isn’t that what teamwork is all about?
Accounting
Now that we have established that, you must also understand that what you do is always tied to the bigger picture, even if you can’t see it. There is not a report run that is meaningless. There is always room for you to say “Help me understand.”
And you must LOVE detail.
The questions you must ask yourself.
- Do I like developing new processes to make things more efficient?
- Do I like working in a deadline driven environment? Seriously, you’ve got to be okay with the question”by-when?”
- Do I handle interruptions well?
Some people work in offices, and others work in a room affectionately known as “the quad.”

Operations
Customer Service (Import Export / Logistics)
The questions you must ask yourself.
- Do I like multi-tasking? ~AND~ Am I truly strong at multitasking?
- Do I like to communicate with people?
- Do I enjoy being the first point of contact when a problem happens?
- Do I communicate intentionally and with precision?
Don’t be surprised if you get about 150 emails a day, that tends to be how our vendors prefer to communicate.
There’s a lot of moving parts, and you are the center of the action. Seriously, people in customer service know more about the movement of food, and the areas that need improvement than anyone else here.

Warehouse
Being flexible, working independently, and taking direction well are imperative to success.
There’s lots of repetitious work here, and it can be VERY physical. You may need to do things like build up pallets of quinoa for storage, and those bags are heavy (50 lbs). You work the cooking oil line bottling oil in to 400 gallon containers on down to gallon containers. You will learn about cooking oil, as well as the mechanics of the bottling line and labeler.
The questions you must ask yourself?
- Am I am morning person?
- Do I take direction and feedback well? And do I give suggestions openly?
- Am I willing to do what it takes to get the job done in a safe and timely manner?
- Do I enjoy cross training into other relevant positions?
- Do I like to be physically active?
Most days are pretty scheduled, but there are unexpected pickups that happen, and rush orders. You must be adaptable to the variety of work that takes place. We forklift certify all our staff, so anyone is able to help out in a pinch.
