Job Description

Tryon is a well-established and respected distributor within North Carolina's alcohol beverage industry, known for its curated selection of beer and wine. The company places a strong emphasis on both its products and its people, fostering an environment that is both creative and collaborative. Tryon prides itself on its deep roots in the state and its dedication to supporting both local and global brands. This focus ensures that employees have the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to dynamic projects in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment while maintaining flexibility in their work schedules. The company culture promotes authenticity, diversity, and inclusion, creating a welcoming workspace for all employees regardless of race, gender, or other legally protected statuses.

The role of Delivery Driver at Tryon is a pivotal position that combines transportation with outstanding customer service. Unlike typical driving jobs, this role involves representing the Tryon experience during every interaction with retail and restaurant partners. Delivery Drivers ensure timely delivery of products in excellent condition, all while maintaining the company’s professional reputation. This position does not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL), making it accessible to a wide range of applicants. Drivers are backed by a guarantee of hours – if they complete all scheduled shifts but work less than 40 hours in a week, the company compensates for the difference to secure full-time pay.

This role offers a $2,500 sign-on bonus after successful completion of 90 days, reflecting Tryon's commitment to rewarding dedication and reliability. Delivery Drivers will manage route manifests, load products efficiently, verify paperwork, and maintain vehicle cleanliness and safety while providing friendly and professional service. The positions typically involve varying hours including early mornings and occasional weekends to meet delivery schedule demands, with shifts usually running from Tuesday through Friday in 10-hour blocks starting at 5:00 AM. Delivery Drivers must be comfortable handling physical requirements such as lifting up to 175 pounds and working in various weather conditions. Tryon supports its workforce with a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, retirement plans with matching, and many additional perks such as tuition reimbursement and paid time off. This position is ideal for those who value teamwork, responsibility, and the opportunity to be part of a leading beverage distributor’s success story.
