OVERVIEW

WHO WE ARE

T&C is a family-owned company that builds authentic relationships one interaction at a time through consistent commitment to heartfelt service, relating to people as people (not numbers), and by selling the freshest, highest-quality products available. We have a deep passion for food and people and are always looking for service-minded individuals of all backgrounds to join our community.

WHO YOU ARE

You are genuine and authentic in your interactions with customers and co-workers. You thrive in a team environment, take your responsibilities seriously, and always consider the customer in your decisions. You see richness and strength in a diverse workforce and treat others with respect to create a place of belonging for all. You care about your community and the environment. Pursuing knowledge to add value and grow is your idea of fun. Oh, and you love food!

WHAT WE OFFER (IN ADDITION TO BEING A FUN PLACE TO WORK)

We offer a highly competitive benefits package (including $5-$19 weekly medical premiums), vacation/sick time, paid holidays, premium pay rates, an Employee Assistance Program, discounts on virtually everything in our markets, 401(k) plans, profit-sharing, a pension, a scholarship program, and an employee referral bonus program. That’s a lot of great stuff!

THE SMALL PRINT WE WANT YOU TO BE AWARE OF

T&C is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We value diversity and do not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, religion, caste, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other characteristic protected by law. We encourage women, people of color, LGBTQ individuals, ethnic minorities, foreign-born residents, and veterans to apply. Duties and responsibilities may be added, deleted, or changed at any time at management’s discretion, verbally or in writing.

If your experience is slightly different from what we’ve described and you believe you can thrive in this role, we’d love to hear from you. Research shows that women and members of underrepresented groups often do not apply when they think they may not meet every qualification, even if they do! We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment and strongly encourage you to apply.
