Meat Sales to Distributors

For over three decades, Marx Imports has supplied premium and specialty meats to distributors, manufacturers, and retailers across the United States. We have a full range of premium beef, pork, and poultry, along with a comprehensive range of game and specialty meats. Our products are all brand-driven programs with compelling stories and claims – no pure commodities here.

We are expanding our national distributor network and are looking for a well-connected, highly maneuverable salesperson to identify, open, and grow opportunities with food distributors across the country.

We are seeking an experienced food service meat salesperson who understands the dynamics of selling into distribution. You must have strong protein knowledge, a deep understanding of the meat cold chain, and the ability to build trust quickly with purchasing teams, category managers, and distributor leadership. This role requires independence, hustle, strong follow-through, and an existing network of distributor contacts throughout the U.S. You must be driven to succeed and able to build, manage, and grow your own book of business.

• Strong protein / meat industry experience, including imported and domestic meat programs
• Deep understanding of the meat cold chain, logistics, and product movement
• Experience selling beef, pork, poultry, lamb, veal, seafood, or specialty proteins
• Ability to communicate product value propositions and close deals
• Understanding of food service purchasing behavior, pricing structures, and margin requirements
• Ability to identify gaps in distributor portfolios and recommend strategic product fits
• Tech-savviness and CRM/communication proficiency
• Strong self-motivation and ability to work independently
• An inclination to utilize AI tools to maximize your effectiveness

Chef experience or a culinary background is a plus but not required.

Salary: $100,000 – $250,000+ (depending on experience)

Compensation may include commission, incentives, or bonus opportunities tied to performance.
