Careers

Field Locations:

Food Authority’s three facilities service the East Coast from Maine to Southern Virginia, with our corporate headquarters located in Hauppauge, New York.

In each facility there are Warehouse functions and Delivery functions.

Our Warehouse receives, inventories, QA’s, picks and palletizes the customer orders. The Warehouse is open from Sunday through Friday and our warehouse associates work a 1^st shift.

We service a few thousand locations, who receive orders at least 3 times a week. Service, Safety, Speed and Accuracy are 4 important attributes needed to be successful in any of our Distribution centers.

Selectors are picking orders and building pallets ready to be delivered to our customers. The Selectors use a Voice Command picking system that tells them how much to pick and from what location in the building. Our Selectors are paid on an incentive based on cases picked per day. 

As a Selector, 1 year picking/selecting experience is needed, power-jack experience, ideally worked with a computerized picking system such as VoCollect and the ability to build pallets and pick 50-75lbs consistently.

Receivers and Loaders bring the product into the facility, put it in slots and replenish so that the Selectors have the product they need to pick and then load the trucks with the finished pallets, making sure of proper weight distribution to ensure our trucks safely deliver each night. Receivers and Loaders can work 1^st or 3^rd shift and are paid hourly.

As a Receiver or Loader, 1+ years’ experience as a Forklift Operator is required as well as a previous forklift certification and a safe track record.

Each year our Delivery team drives millions of miles to customer locations to deliver and replenish store coolers and freezers so that when the stores open, they have everything they need to start their day. Our Drivers work at night, when the traffic is light, and parking is easy. Each Driver is home every day. Many, but not all Drivers, have a Helper who share the unloading and putting away of the product at the stores. 

As a Driver, minimum requirements needed are:

• An Interstate (Class A or B) Commercial Driver’s License (including cleared background check)
• Minimum 1-year consistent CDL Driving experience in last 3 years, ideally 3+ years.
• No more than 1 accident in last 3 years
• No more than 1 driving related suspension in last 3 years
• No more than 2 minor moving violations while operating a CDL truck in last 3 years
