As a Detailer, you will drive your personal vehicle to a variety of store locations, retrieve Frito-Lay products from the backs of stores, and ensure that our products are both fresh and attractive to our customers when out in the store. This is the perfect role for someone who is interested in part-time work! Although you will start out as a Detailer for FritoLay, we are investing in helping you grow with us. This job can open the door to career opportunities with us or our parent company, PepsiCo.

- Driving to assigned locations in your personal vehicle (we’ll provide mileage reimbursement while you’re on the clock)
- Checking in and out with manager on duty
- Merchandising cases from the back room to the sales floor, filling display units or shelves with products
- Rotating products and removing defective and out-of-date products
- Tidying up shelves and displays, knocking down boxes and disposing of any waste
- Assembling and disassembling of temporary displays
We operate 24 hours a day, which means you may not have a typical schedule, and our jobs are physical! We transform store aisles, end caps, and displays into works of art, from the lowest shelf to the highest shelf, so you can expect to be on your feet for a majority of your shift.
Minimum Qualifications:
- You are 18 years of age or older
- You will be required to work on weekends, holidays, as well as off shift
- You have reliable or personal transportation to work
- You have a valid driver’s license with proof of insurance

- You are able to lift 15 to 40 pounds with or without a reasonable accommodation
Our application takes 20-25 minutes to finish on any device. Our mission is to get you in for an interview instead of jumping through hoops. Just keep an eye on your e-mail, and we will take care of the rest.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, protected veteran status, or disability status.

Which food & beverage companies sponsor F-1 OPT visas in Arizona?
Arizona food and beverage employers known to hire international candidates include Shamrock Foods, one of the largest food distributors in the Southwest, along with Hensley Beverage Company and national chains with Arizona operations like PepsiCo and Sysco. Large distribution and manufacturing facilities in the Phoenix metro area tend to have more structured OPT hiring programs than smaller regional producers.
Which cities in Arizona have the most food & beverage F-1 OPT sponsorship jobs?
Phoenix and its surrounding cities, including Tempe, Chandler, and Scottsdale, concentrate the majority of food and beverage OPT opportunities in Arizona due to the region's large distribution hubs and corporate office presence. Tucson also has openings, particularly connected to the University of Arizona's agricultural and food science programs. Smaller markets like Flagstaff have limited but occasional postings from regional producers.
What types of food & beverage roles typically qualify for F-1 OPT sponsorship?
Roles that align directly with a STEM or related degree field are the strongest fit for F-1 OPT in food and beverage. These include food scientist, quality assurance analyst, process engineer, supply chain analyst, and food safety specialist. Positions requiring a bachelor's degree in food science, chemical engineering, nutrition, or a related discipline tend to qualify. General labor, line production, and service roles typically do not meet OPT employment eligibility requirements.
How do I find food & beverage F-1 OPT sponsorship jobs in Arizona?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for international students and filters food and beverage jobs in Arizona by OPT eligibility, so you're not sorting through listings from employers who don't sponsor. You can search by job type, location, and visa category to surface roles at Arizona employers who have a documented history of hiring F-1 OPT candidates. This is more targeted than general job search tools that don't filter by sponsorship status.
Are there any Arizona-specific considerations for F-1 OPT in the food & beverage industry?
Arizona's food and beverage sector has a strong distribution and agricultural processing component tied to the state's farming output, which creates demand for supply chain, food safety, and quality roles, all areas where OPT candidates with relevant degrees can be competitive. However, F-1 OPT employment must be directly related to your field of study, so candidates should confirm the role matches their degree before applying. Employers in Arizona are not required to provide OPT support, so confirming willingness to work with your DSO and employer upfront is important.
