Training

Our Product Champions work throughout the company training staff for techniques required on specific dishes. Some of our people develop a greater interest in the process and hidden talents are sometimes discovered. To develop those individuals further, and increase their job opportunities, we have a programme of training, which is carried out in both the Innovation Centre and various production environments in the factory. We put great emphasis on staff loyalty and the nurturing of homegrown talent. Of course we also look outside for new talent and again have a recruitment programme through which we seek out the best – individuals who we feel will share our passion for creativity and enthusiasm for growing the company.
