Established in 1853, KP Snacks is a prominent player in the UK snack market, producing some of the nation's most cherished brands. Renowned for its commitment to employee engagement, KP Snacks has developed a robust Values & Behaviours programme, which shapes its organisational culture and guides daily operations.

KP Snacks' commitment to employee wellbeing is evident in its comprehensive suite of support services. From mental health first aiders to holistic "We Care" support, the company provides proactive and reactive resources for its team. Physical wellbeing is also given due attention, with initiatives such as flu vaccines, health kiosks, and the KP Go initiative with Virgin Pulse, promoting an active lifestyle.

The organisation’s commitment to transparency and communication is demonstrated through its Extended Leadership Team's regular updates on organisational information. The team uses KP4ME, a communication and colleague benefits portal, to share business updates, and hosts on-site townhall meetings to foster connection and collaboration.

KP Snacks also prioritises community involvement, encouraging staff to support local initiatives through its Community Heroes days. Its sustainable strategy, People & Planet, emphasises responsible operations, evidenced by the company's recycling initiatives, cycle-to-work schemes, and electric vehicle charging points.

Lastly, the company invests significantly in leadership development, with four distinct management programmes designed to nurture future leaders. The organisation also promotes internal growth, with 134 roles filled through internal promotions in the past year, demonstrating its dedication to employee development.
