🌱 New in Shops That Matter: Riverford: Employee-Owned & Organic
Our latest Shops That Matter feature explores one of the UK’s quiet sustainability success stories — Riverford Organic Farmers.
What started as a small Devon farm has grown into a national organic veg-box service that’s changing how food reaches our tables. Every carrot, cabbage, and leek comes from farms that work with nature, not against it.
But the real story isn’t just the vegetables — it’s the ownership. Riverford is fully employee-owned, meaning profits and decisions are shared among the people who grow, pack, and deliver the food. It’s proof that fair pay, happy teams, and environmental care can thrive together.
Inside the lesson, we explore:🌾 How employee ownership reshapes business ethics.🥕 How planning ahead reduces waste and stabilises farmer incomes.📦 How the veg-box model builds a loyal community of conscious eaters.🌍 And what other organisations can learn from their success.
🪴 Explore it now under Shops That Matter → Riverford: Employee-Owned and Earth-Aligned💬 Join the conversation: What part of Riverford’s model could work in your local community?
Let’s celebrate — and learn from — businesses proving that sustainability can scale.
