“Our passion for success has come about because of our great people,” said founder David Langmead.

The company employs 1,200 people across its four sites, and one of the company’s core values is to ensure Natures Way Food (NWF) is a brilliant place to work. The company is passionate about looking after its staff, and says more than 70 per cent of its management and leadership positions are promoted internally.

For the company’s 25th birthday, each member of staff received a goody bag containing: a Chilly’s style reusable water bottle; a NWF 25th birthday polo shirt and an NWF recipe book.

The cook book contained recipes from 25 different nationalities – including some from staff – to celebrate ‘the unique blend of cultures at Natures Way.
