About Us
For more than 50 years, VMS Distribution has been a leader in Direct-to-Store Distribution (DSD), serving gas stations and convenience stores, pharmacies, hardware stores, and electronics retailers. Our product mix is as diverse as our customer base and continues to expand to include tech and cell phone accessories, toys, headwear and gloves, tobacco accessories, drinkware, and general merchandise. Our DSD network spans Western Canada, and we are committed to delivering outstanding customer service and quality product lines.
Job Description
We are looking for a new team member to represent VMS Distribution across Southern Alberta (Red Deer south to Cardston and Lethbridge), Eastern BC (Golden to Cranbrook), and Western Saskatchewan (Saskatoon to Swift Current). This role involves visiting accounts in person, meeting with managers or owners to review current sales programs, and introducing current products. The territory is well established and includes a strong customer base across a variety of retail channels. While the initial focus will be on maintaining and servicing existing customers, account development and new customer acquisition are essential parts of the role.
This is a full-time, Monday-to-Friday position that is ideal for someone with strong time management skills. It is not a typical “9-to-5” role. We will provide guidelines and a schedule during the initial training period; once you are fully trained, you will have the flexibility to manage your territory and maximize your sales potential. Due to the size of the territory, overnight travel is required, averaging 9 to 12 nights per month.
We offer an extensive initial training period with hands-on support from one of our Sales Managers. This training ensures the successful candidate gains the product knowledge, education,



and customer service standards needed to succeed in the role.

Independent work environment with minimal managerial supervision
