About Tocha

Tocha is a Vancouver born company producing hot sauce without the heat. We make bold, balanced sauces designed for flavour instead of extreme spice.

About the role

As a Brand Ambassador, you’ll be the face of Tocha at sampling sessions across a designated region (York Region). You’ll chat with shoppers both at markets, events and in stores, to help them discover the right Tocha flavour for their tastebuds, and demystify our hot sauce without the heat.
