Our Route Sales Representatives are responsible for delivering, selling, and merchandising FritoLay's complete line of products including Lay's, Doritos, Cheetos, Tostitos, Fritos, and many more to local stores including gas stations, dollar stores, and large grocery stores. As a Route Sales Representative, you drive a FritoLay truck to different stores, work independently to unload orders, merchandise product, and partner with store managers to increase sales, order, and maintain records throughout the day.

  • Run routes for team members', experience different stores, and meet new customers
  • Grow sales on the route by building relationships, selling in displays, and completing national initiatives
  • Attain a route with set days off/schedule with time
  • Work in a fun, fast paced, and physical environment
We operate 24 hours a day, so you may not have a typical schedule! Team members often work weekends and holidays. Our jobs are physical!

  • Be 21 years of age or older
  • Have a valid driver's license with proof of insurance and ability to obtain other licensures as required by state law
  • Be able to frequently lift 40 lbs. with or without a reasonable accommodation
As a full-time team member, you will be eligible to receive full company benefits. You can learn more about our benefits on our career site, but here are some of the benefits we offer:
  • 401(k) contribution
  • Health, dental and vision insurance
  • Financial support to help obtain a degree
  • Company discounts and perks
Our application takes 20-25 minutes to finish on any device. Our mission is to get you in for an interview instead of jumping through hoops. Just keep an eye on your e-mail, and we will take care of the rest. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, protected veteran status, or disability status.

PepsiCo is an Equal Opportunity Employer: Female / Minority / Disability / Protected Veteran / Sexual Orientation / Gender Identity
