About Hissho Sushi

Our vertically integrated supply chain, industry-leading innovation, and focus on quality ensure that every product reflects the care and consistency of our brand. Join our commissary team and help deliver fresh, ready-to-eat sushi to our retail partners.

What You’ll Do

This hybrid role combines early morning delivery responsibilities with in-kitchen prep support.

• Safely operate a company refrigerated van to deliver fresh sushi products to 5 convenience store locations daily.
• Begin delivery route around 4:00 AM, ensuring all deliveries are completed on schedule.
• Follow a structured check-in process at each store, including verifying delivery quantities, restocking displays, rotating product, and removing expired items.
• Maintain clean, organized, and properly merchandised displays at each location.
• Complete required delivery logs and documentation for each stop (inventory, waste, temperature checks).
• Adhere to all food safety, temperature control, and transportation guidelines.
• Communicate any store issues, low inventory, or merchandising concerns to management.
• Return to commissary kitchen after deliveries to assist with daily food prep.
• Wash, peel, and cut vegetables; assist with rice preparation and ingredient staging.
• Follow HACCP, FDA, and internal food safety protocols.
• Complete prep logs (temperature, labeling, FIFO rotation).
• Maintain cleanliness and organization of prep and storage areas.
• Assist with kitchen setup for production shift.

Requirements
