Excellent in Sales and Management as well in communication and closing deals on any level of fmcg

To grow within myself and to grow within the company. To strive for excellence and to be a leader as well as a team player to make the biggest success of my working environvent. To go the extra mile to keep customers happy by maximising their profits and to ensure all stock availibily is according to needs. To identify oppurtunities that will create better awareness so that the company and clients can benefit to the extreme. To maintain a healthy lifestyle in the working environment and to expose all the aspects of a true and honest sales person.

Pros: Be part of a market leader with market leading brands that is growing at a rapid pace and keeping up and also leading market trends
Cons: Currently most changes in top management and oppurtunity to grow creates a big uncertainty

Vibrant and innovative environment

A great environment to develop and also meet the demands of client base, a well organized sector with the ability to grow and provides opportunities to develop and learn more. Every day one wakes up to different challenges but the one goal is set to achieve and deliver the best level of service to our customers. Greatest challenge of all is to insure customer demands and queries are met and the trade doesnt loose its footprint or else the whole exercise of development to the area would be worthless. My relationship with my clients kicked off very well from the start due to my good communication skills and a was able to maintain a solid reputation going forward, this is all subject to one common goal "customer service " and this keeps me at common ground with my customers and I suppose this is the great part of my job.

Pros: Not at the peak of how I would escalate the global growth of the business and some of the ideas put on the table are overlooked.
Cons: Fair working hours.

Early mornings, multi-tasking environment, treat it like your own business

Good day I am Linda Cham, currently working for an FMCG company based in Isando. My role is Regional Logistics Manager, I oversee the management of 60% of the company's throughput. I manage an annual budget of about R150M assuming full responsibility of all variable and fixed costs with a clear mandate to meet and exceed volume targets while working within the specified budget. My role covers both warehouse and distribution functions In this current climate, saving costs is my no.1 priority. Low volumes as a result of COVID-19 and the National Lockdown have hindered the company's growth to a certain extent and when profits are low, it's common practice to save costs by scrutinising the income statement and cutting expenditure where u can. What I am looking for now is continued growth, a mentally stimulating working environment, an upbeat business culture that promotes high performance and celebrates successes, as well as a heightened remuneration package offering appealing benefits.

Pros: Flexible
Cons: Small company. Growth limited

Good working atmosphere

We worked as a team which was a good thing and a good experience too each and everyday in case one of us did not make a target. Mostly I learned that no matter what negativity should not be a point that must be taken to mind but always be positive. Management always encouraged us to push of which we did.The hardest parMy days at work involve interacting with clients who are mainly operating the informal markets, i have an opportunity to meet different cultures which helps me grow as a person and understand the needs of each of them. the hardest part of the job is where i have to carry large amount of cash which possesses high risk of me being robbed, however the most enjoyable moment is when i have to fulfill my daily tasks and when management pay me a visit on tradet was to reach target everyday but which we did manage.

Pros: nice environment
Cons: long working hours
