As a CDL-A Driver, you will also be expected to manage physical demands such as hand-lifting, using lift gates and two-wheelers to move product cases, some weighing between 10 and 90 pounds depending on the location. The driver is responsible for the professional handling of merchandise, ensuring it is secured properly during transport and accurately unloaded at the destination.

In summary, Performance Foodservice offers a rewarding career opportunity for CDL-A Drivers who are looking to be part of a respected food distribution company with a strong community presence and growth opportunities.
