Job Description

We’re bringing a high-margin FMCG product into Kenya and need a street-smart, field-hardened hustler to lead our distribution and sales across Western Kenya, especially Kisumu, Eldoret, Kakamega, Bungoma, and surrounding areas and later expand into Nairobi and other regions.

This is not a desk job. We’re looking for someone with real hustle – someone who knows how to push product, deal with dukas and distributors, and move stock fast.

What You’ll Do
Pitch and sign up distributors, wholesalers, and sub-distributors in Western Kenya and Nairobi.
Ensure the product gets into retail shops, kiosks, supermarkets, and general trade.

Manage stock from warehouse to final outlet.

Track sales, report weekly movement, and gather real-time market intelligence.

Coordinate ground-level activations (posters, sampling, etc.) where needed.

We’re Looking for Someone Who…
Has 2+ years experience in FMCG sales, distribution, or territory management.

Knows the Western Kenya retail and distribution landscape well.

Already has connections with wholesalers, dukas, and van sales agents.

Can handle reporting via WhatsApp, Google Sheets, and simple mobile tools.

Is hungry, self-driven, and wants to grow with a fast-moving brand.

What You Get
Base Salary: Competitive, based on experience.

Performance-Based Commission: For every outlet stocked, volume sold, and new distributor onboarded.

Growth Opportunity: Build and lead a regional team as we scale nationwide.

Direct link to the importer — you’ll run the show on the ground.

Base Location: Western Kenya (Kisumu, Eldoret, Bungoma, Kakamega, etc.)
Start Date: ASAP
