Come and work with us!
Hi neighbours - we are on the hunt for some great people to join our teams on both our Gisborne and Hastings sites. Our Gisborne team are working away processing crops grown throughout the region, creating amazing ingredients that they’ve perfected over the years.
On our other site in Hastings we are opening a new factory, so this is an amazing chance for you to get in on the ground floor and become one of our experts!
Both sites are looking for graders, machine operators, QC, lab tech and forklift drivers. If this sounds like you, pop down to one of our sites to pick up an application pack!
Gisborne – 40 Innes Street, Awapuni (06-869-0666)
Hastings – 1223 Tomoana Road, Hastings (06-878-1460)
We’d love for you to join us.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
