You could be working for a merchant as a Branch Manager / Assistant Manager and be looking for a switch to field sales; this will be an ideal background due to your understanding of the trade counter environment and strong product knowledge. Alternatively you could be in field sales just now and be working for a manufacturer selling into Merchants, this will also carry lots of synergy.
