About The Position

Since 1964, we have been the world’s largest supplier of fudge making equipment, ingredients, and marketing expertise. If you ever go on vacation (and we hope you do!), you’ve probably seen and maybe purchased out fudge. Since our fudge is always made fresh in each retail store (and sold under the retailer’s own name), we are the best kept secret in retail confectionary. With a strong presence in numerous countries and a vast network of retailers, including well-known establishments in the tourism sector, we are committed to delivering outstanding products and services. Our company culture fosters growth and embodies the "Hungry, Humble, Smart" philosophy. We seek individuals who are driven, self-motivated, and always eager to learn and do more. Being humble, our team members prioritize the team over self and lack excessive ego or concerns about status. Additionally, they possess strong interpersonal skills, enabling them to work effectively with others. We value a strong work ethic and a positive & vibrant work environment. We are seeking a hands-on Supply Chain Manager to manage and execute day-to-day supply chain operations across procurement, production planning, inventory, logistics, and distribution. This role is critical to ensuring the right products are available at the right time, in the right location, and at the right cost. You will work closely with cross-functional teams and third-party partners to maintain operational efficiency, improve material flow, and support consistent order fulfillment. This is a highly operational role requiring strong execution, attention to detail, and the ability to manage real-time supply chain challenges.
