About Natures Way Foods
Natures Way Foods began in 1994, when the Langmead brothers set up a small, bagged salad operation. Their big idea was to combine the freshest lettuce with the latest food manufacturing technology. Since then, we've grown by expanding our customer base and moving into new fresh, convenient categories and product areas.
Our culture is inclusive, and our people are diverse, spanning 29 different languages. We operate four manufacturing facilities capable of producing over 326 million units per year. Building on previous success, this year promises to be another exceptional year for our organisation. It is an exciting time to join Natures Way Foods as we expand our production lines, offering genuine opportunities to develop your skills and progress within the organisation.
