Shamrock Foods Tucson Jobs: 125 CDL & Warehouse Roles Hiring

Published May 14, 2026 | TucsonHIRED Team

Shamrock Food Company, the Phoenix-based food and beverage distributor, is bringing 125 new jobs to Tucson with a new warehouse and distribution facility — the single largest hiring commitment among the six companies that recently committed to expanding in the region. For job seekers in transportation, logistics, and warehouse operations, this is one of the most significant hiring opportunities Tucson has seen in years.

This article is part of our coverage of Tucson's 285-job economic development push, which spans aerospace, mining, optics, manufacturing, and distribution.

Why Shamrock Foods Chose Tucson

Tucson's logistics corridor is one of the most strategically positioned in the Southwest. The region sits at the intersection of Interstate 10 and Interstate 19, with direct access to the U.S.-Mexico border crossing at Nogales just over an hour south. For a food distributor moving perishable goods across Arizona, New Mexico, and into northern Mexico, Tucson offers shorter route times, lower fuel costs, and access to a deep pool of CDL-licensed drivers.

The new facility builds on Shamrock's existing Arizona footprint and gives the company room to scale its foodservice distribution business — which serves restaurants, schools, hospitals, hotels, and convenience stores across the region.

Roles Shamrock Foods Is Hiring in Tucson

🚛 CDL-A Truck Drivers

Shamrock typically hires both local route drivers (home daily) and regional drivers. Most positions require a Class A CDL, a clean driving record, and the ability to handle multi-stop deliveries with manual unloading. Refrigerated and dry freight experience is a plus.

Pay range: $60,000 to $80,000+ annually for CDL-A drivers, with top earners exceeding $90,000 with overtime and bonuses.

📦 Warehouse Associates & Selectors

Order selectors, forklift operators, and freezer/cooler warehouse workers are core to the operation. Shamrock often hires across multiple shifts, including overnight and early-morning starts to meet customer delivery windows.

Pay range: $18 to $25 per hour, with shift differentials for nights and freezer work.

🚐 Delivery Drivers (Non-CDL)

For smaller routes and last-mile deliveries, Shamrock also hires non-CDL delivery drivers with clean driving records.

👔 Operations, Management & Sales

The new facility creates supervisory and management openings as well: warehouse supervisors, transportation managers, fleet maintenance technicians, customer service representatives, and outside sales reps calling on restaurants and foodservice accounts.

What Shamrock Foods Looks For in Candidates

CDL drivers: Class A license, 1+ year of verifiable driving experience preferred, clean MVR, ability to lift 50+ lbs repeatedly
Warehouse: Ability to work in cold environments (cooler/freezer), forklift certification a plus (often provided), reliable attendance
