Description We’re mad about organic veg. It’s at the heart of everything we do. We love to grow it, pack it into our iconic veg boxes, and deliver it to around 50,000 homes across the UK every week.
Riverford began in 1987, with one field of organic veg, a wheelbarrow, and a beaten-up 2CV for deliveries. We’ve grown into a thriving e-commerce business, with four organic farms, two packhouses, a fleet of vans and drivers, a wholesaler, a butchery and an award-winning restaurant. This requires loads of brilliant people; we employ in areas including IT, logistics, sales, HR, finance, marketing, and more besides!
In 2018, Riverford became employee owned, ensuring our independence and protecting our values forever. Working for Riverford makes you a ‘co-owner’; every individual is valued, and every voice is heard.
