Ever since John Griffin opened our first factory early in the 19th century, our communities have mattered to us too. Here at The Griffin's Food Company, we're about getting stuck in and helping where we can, so everyone gets the chance to share in our passion for life and food.

We encourage a culture that is exciting, challenging and we strive for innovation in everything we do. Our aim is for our employees to share in our success, enjoy our products and reap the benefits of their hard work within a supportive environment where work- life balance is encouraged.
