Full Job Description

Foodservice Sales Trainee

About Us

M. J. Kellner is a locally owned broadline foodservice distributor. We have everything a commercial kitchen needs to operate. We sell to restaurants, nursing homes, hospitals, and schools within a 125-mile radius of Springfield. We have been serving central Illinois for more than 100 years and are proud members of this community. Bill Kellner, our third-generation owner, did not have a 4th generation to carry on the family legacy, so he initiated an Employee Stock Ownership Plan in 2013. On October 31, 2021, the company became 100% employee-owned. This is at no cost to our employees and is a very generous retirement benefit for us to look forward to and work hard for every day. We come to work each day to exceed all of our customers' food service needs and to be their most trusted and reliable partner.
