Midwest & Northeast
A Once-in-a-Generation Opportunity
If you're in the dairy and cattle space — you already know what this means. Calf-Tel is the name on the hutch. The brand producers trust. The standard that the rest of the industry measures itself against. And now, for the first time in years, we have an opening for a Territory Sales Manager to own the Midwest & Northeast— one of the most dynamic and influential dairy markets in the world.
This isn't a role for someone who needs to learn the industry. This is a role for someone who already has the relationships, knows the operations, and is ready to carry the most respected brand in calf housing into the next chapter of its story.
Who We Are
Hampel's Calf-Tel is the #1 brand in plastic calf housing worldwide. Behind the roughly two million calves raised in Calf-Tel housing every year, there's a farm — and those farms, whether home to 10 head or 10,000, set the direction for everything we do. We're not just selling hutches. We're helping producers raise healthier calves, run leaner operations, and build better herds.
Calf-Tel is a subsidiary of Hampel Corporation, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2026 — one of the largest manufacturers of large-format, deep-draw, heavy-gauge plastic thermoformed products in North America. Our legacy is built on quality that lasts decades, and relationships that run just as deep.
The Role
As Territory Sales Manager for the Midwest & Northeast, you will be the face of Calf-Tel across one of the largest dairy regions of the US in addition to a territory that is ripe with agricultural science academia. You'll work directly with dairy operations, big and small, large calf ranches, and distribution partners. You will leverage both your experience and smarts developing new accounts, deepening existing relationships, and growing market share in a region that demands real credibility.
This is a high-autonomy, high-impact role. You'll report directly to senior leadership and have the full backing of Hampel Corporation's 50 years of manufacturing excellence behind every conversation you have.
What You'll Do
• Own and grow the Midwest and Northeast territories.
• Build and maintain relationships with the region's largest calf ranches, dairy producers, and livestock supply distributors
• Identify, prospect, and close new business at scale, targeting opportunities that drive both volume and revenue.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to producers, understanding their calf-raising programs and recommending the right Calf-Tel solutions
• Attend and represent Calf-Tel at regional trade shows, livestock expos, and industry events
• Maintain a disciplined CRM pipeline and provide accurate sales forecasting to leadership
• Collaborate with Hampel's marketing and product teams to relay field intelligence and customer feedback
• Travel extensively throughout the defined territories — this is a boots-on-the-ground role
