The position of Driver, Formula CDL-B, is a vital role within Performance Foodservice’s supply chain operations. Drivers are responsible for ensuring the timely and safe delivery of food and food-related products to customers, often serving as the face of the company upon arrival. This role requires operating tractor-trailers or straight trucks across intrastate and interstate routes, including local, over-the-road, shuttle, and overnight deliveries.

Additionally, the company offers a $5,000 sign-on bonus to new hires who qualify, further emphasizing the value placed on this essential role.

Drivers at Performance Foodservice are required to conduct thorough pre- and post-trip safety inspections and ensure all equipment meets safety standards. They handle the loading and unloading of products, verify orders and invoices, and maintain accurate delivery documentation. Effective communication with customers, vendors, and coworkers is critical, as drivers must provide updates, resolve issues, and uphold professional relationships. The role involves physical demands such as hand-lifting product cases typically weighing between 10 and 90 pounds, and operating equipment like two-wheelers and lift gates.

This position is well-suited for individuals who are safety-conscious, reliable, and customer-focused, with valid CDL B licenses and relevant commercial driving experience.
