Sorting and Inspecting Produce:

Examine fruits and vegetables for quality, ensuring they meet store standards. Discard damaged or spoiled items and sort produce by size, type, and ripeness.

Carefully pack produce into containers or packaging, ensuring it is handled with care to avoid bruising or damage. Follow weight and size guidelines for packaging.

Attach labels to packaged produce with accurate pricing, expiration dates, and product information. Ensure proper placement of labels for easy identification.

Keep the packing area clean and sanitary by regularly cleaning work surfaces, removing trash, and organizing supplies.

Track inventory levels and report low stock to supervisors to ensure timely reordering of products.

Weigh bulk produce items and package them into customer-sized portions according to store policies and customer needs.

Follow all safety protocols for handling fresh produce, including washing hands, using gloves, and maintaining proper hygiene to prevent contamination.

Occasionally assist customers by answering questions about produce quality, availability, and pricing.

Help receive and unload produce shipments from suppliers, inspecting the delivery for quality and quantity accuracy.

Monitor produce for signs of spoilage, removing unsellable items, and reducing waste by creating packages or promotions for products nearing their expiration date.
