Job description

Independent Operator (IO) Opportunities in various States!

This is a 1099 Contractor (Owner Operator) Opportunity: Be your OWN BOSS!

At Ole, our mission is to produce the finest Authentic Mexican inspired products with an unwavering commitment to quality and freshness. We believe that holding a seat at your dinner table is the ultimate compliment, and we strive to help families create wholesome, fun, and authentic eating experiences.

We are looking for reliable, self-directed Owner Operators to own routes end-to-end — deliveries, in-store merchandising, warehouse operations, and inventory management.

This role operates independently. After an initial ramp-up period, you will run the route without day-to-day oversight. The right candidate takes pride in doing things right and doesn't need to be managed to do so.

What You’ll do:

  • In-store merchandising to ensure shelves are stocked, rotated, and properly presented
  • Warehouse duties including loading, unloading, and inventory organization
  • Order entry, sales recording, and credit writing using a Zebra handheld device
  • Ongoing monitoring of prior sales data and upcoming promotions to optimize store-level inventory

Compensation

  • 1099 Opportunity, paid as performance-based margin
  • Margin is calculated on net sales; a well-run route with minimal stales and returns keeps earnings consistently in this range
  • Tortillas are a household staple — this route is recession-proof and earnings adjust automatically with inflation as product prices move

What We're Looking For

  • Self-directed and dependable — capable of owning a route without daily direction
  • Detail-oriented, with strong follow-through on inventory, merchandising standards, and data entry
  • Prior DSD, grocery, or food route experience is a plus, but not required

What We Offer

  • Full autonomy after ramp-up
  • An established customer base with no cold selling
  • Early morning schedule with early afternoon finish times
  • For the right candidate, future opportunity to invest in or take on additional routes

To express interest: Visit www.olemex.com and click on the Distribution tab at the top to complete the form. Tell us briefly about yourself and any relevant experience. A formal resume is not required.

Benefits:

  • Local deliveries!
  • Flexibility of schedule
