Commercial Night Driver - Delano

Why Join Our Team?

At General Produce, delivering freshness is more than a promise — it’s our daily standard. From our state‑of‑the‑art Sacramento facility, we serve Northern&Central California, Western Nevada and Southern Oregon, and even export to the Pacific Rim and Asia.

As a Commercial Night Driver, you’ll play a key role in keeping our operation moving while the city sleeps. This position is designed for a driver who resides in the Delano area and will begin each shift in Delano, travel to our Sacramento facility to pick up a load, and then return to Delano to complete the route. The role focuses primarily on a transfer route between facilities with little to no customer deliveries, offering steady miles and a consistent routine.

Enjoy the stability of a full-time position that keeps you behind the wheel while helping ensure fresh, high‑quality produce is ready for distribution to restaurants, schools, and communities by morning.
