US Foods is one of the largest foodservice distributors in the United States, with a strong reputation for delivering quality products and exceptional customer service. As a leading company in the food industry, US Foods emphasizes a culture of continuous improvement, outstanding training programs, and career growth opportunities for its employees. Known for its dedication to promoting from within, US Foods fosters a supportive work environment that values safety, integrity, and community engagement. The company's commitment to its associates includes a comprehensive benefits package, a strong safety culture, and local leadership that prioritizes employee success and well-being.
The role of a US Foods Driver is vital to the company’s operations and essential to delivering excellent service and food products to customers. This full-time position typically involves working Monday through Friday with start times between 2:00 am and 5:00 am and entails a 40 to 55-hour workweek. Drivers can expect a weekly pay guarantee of $1,442.30 plus potential component pay based on miles, cases, and stops during deliveries. The role requires drivers to operate trucks safely, meeting scheduled delivery times while handling all aspects of product transport and customer interaction. Drivers are responsible for unloading products using tools like a two-wheeler or pallet jack and ensuring deliveries are accurately documented and signed off by customers.
US Foods Drivers must demonstrate professionalism and high customer service standards since they are often the face of the company in client interactions. The position also involves performing pre-trip and post-trip vehicle inspections to maintain safety and compliance with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. Physical demands include lifting, carrying, pushing, or pulling between 20 and 80+ pounds repeatedly during shifts and working under various weather conditions with frequent stops.
To qualify, candidates must be at least 21 years old, hold a valid CDL Class A license with the necessary endorsements, and have at least six months of commercial driving experience or three months specific to food or beverage delivery. Registration with the FMCSA Clearinghouse, a DOT-required database for tracking driver drug and alcohol program violations, is mandatory. Ability to read and communicate effectively in English and operate a manual transmission vehicle where required are also important. US Foods offers a supportive environment where drivers can build lasting careers with comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, 401K, life insurance, paid time off, and employee stock purchase plans. For drivers looking to join a well-established, respected company with a focus on safety, growth, and community impact, US Foods presents a rewarding career opportunity.
