We believe in creating a unique & rewarding work experience for our people.
Our people are hard-working, have a positive attitude and a willingness to learn.
Who Are We?
We're the company that sells Cutco Cutlery. Our people are diverse and fun (a great number of our sales force is college-aged) and they love representing our world-class kitchen cutlery.
True, many of the people we work with never once thought about kitchen knives before they met us. But, they catch on quickly.
What's Vector?
Vector Marketing is a single-level direct sales company that sells Cutco®.
Early in Cutco Corporation's history, there were hundreds of small independent sellers of Cutco®. In 1981, Vector Marketing was founded to be one of those independent sellers. From 1981 to 1984 Vector sold way more than all the other independent sellers.
In 1985, Cutco Corporation (back then it was called Alcas Corporation) bought the company from its owners to replicate Vector's success across the nation.
Now, Vector Marketing is the primary seller of Cutco Cutlery.
Our home office is in Olean, New York, and we have over 250 year-round, independently run locations throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Plus, we have over 300 more temporary locations that open each year for our peak summer season.
What's Cutco?
We're glad you asked!
Cutco Cutlery is a high-quality line of kitchen cutlery, kitchen accessories, and sporting knives. Cutco has been manufactured in Olean, New York since 1949.
(That's right: we are proud to be the only high-quality cutlery line still made right here in the USA.)
Over 15 million homes in North America have Cutco in their kitchen. Why? Because the knives are awesome... and guaranteed FOREVER. Our customers absolutely love them.
What We Believe
We believe that in order to succeed as a company, we first have to help individual people succeed.
We believe that treating someone on our team as an individual is better than applying a cookie cutter management style to someone's personality.
Our goal is to provide an exceptional work environment so our people can give our customers great customer service.
We're Proud Because...
We're one of the largest recruiters of college students in North America each year.
- Our people develop some sweet skills while selling Cutco, and they build a resume that can take them anywhere.
- Our people think it's pretty cool to give back.
- Our people are diverse.
If you're willing to work hard, have an open mind and a great attitude, we might be a good fit for you!
