Word from the top

I am so proud to lead such a fantastic team at Lindt UK and to have them recognise that we are a great place to work. The last year has been a challenging one for everyone but whether our colleagues were furloughed because of store closures, asked to adapt to 100% home-working, or navigating different ways of working and changing personal circumstances, they have shown that even though we have been apart, together we have been passionately Lindt.

The strength of our values as a guiding force has really come to the fore and colleagues have shown enormous care for each other, our customers and the communities within which we operate. We have adapted with passion, commitment and real agility and our business is continuing to thrive as a consequence.
