Deliveries to customers are done throughout the week to both wholesale locations and direct-to-consumer homes. Routes last between 4 to 8 hours.

Warehouse aggregators pack grocery orders, portion items from big cases to retail sizing, sort wholesale orders, take inventory, and help keep the warehouse clean. Packing grocery orders can mean working in a walk-in fridge for several hours and boxes can weigh 50 lbs+. Attention to details and following systems are keys to success in this role.
