Wholesale Sales Manager (Coffee + Matcha)

Couplet Coffee

Los Angeles, CA (Hybrid) | Part-Time → Full-Time

Couplet Coffee is growing our wholesale channel — and we’re looking for a closer.

We’re a woman-owned specialty coffee and matcha brand based in LA. You might’ve seen us in 300+ World Market locations nationwide, Erewhon, in your favorite local café, or at any of our 4 cafe locations. Now we’re scaling wholesale into hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, and hospitality groups and we need someone who already knows that world inside and out.

The Role

You’ll own outbound sales for our wholesale program across coffee and matcha product lines. That means prospecting, pitching, closing, and managing new accounts in foodservice and hospitality. This starts as a 2-month part-time engagement with a clear path to full-time conversion based on performance.

What You Bring

→ Proven wholesale sales experience in coffee, tea, beverage, or specialty food

→ Existing relationships with hotel F&B buyers, hospitality groups, café owners, or foodservice distributors

→ Track record of closing B2B accounts in the $100K+ annual range

→ You know how to work a territory, build a pipeline, and hit quota

→ Bonus: experience selling matcha, coffee, or specialty beverage ingredients

The Structure

• Months 1–2: Part-time (20–25 hrs/week), prorated base + full commission from day one

• Month 3+: Full-time conversion at $70K base salary

• Commission: Earned on all new wholesale revenue you close

Compensation
