The theme for International Women's Day 2025 is "Accelerate Action"— a powerful call to move beyond words and take bold, decisive steps toward gender equality. It looks to address how we can collectively eradicate the systemic barriers and biases that women face. Through this week, we've been celebrating and empowering our female colleagues with calls to accelerate action across the industry. #internationalwomensday #iwd25 #foodmanufacturing #femaleleaders #womeninbusiness

International Women's Day Why we've been celebrating International Women’s Day Really simply, diversity and inclusion is central to our business to ensure our continued success. We want to recruit, retain and develop more female talent as study after study shows that the more diverse and gender-balanced an organisation, the better it performs. In our industry, women are often well represented at the grassroots, but as we go up the chain, there are still fewer women making it to the top. But things are changing and we can all play our part to change this. Role models are really important in encouraging girls and women to go into science, technology, engineering and maths focused careers (STEM) and into traditionally male dominated areas like manufacturing. So talking to our teams and families and encouraging them to think about the whole range of careers out there is something we can all do and makes a huge difference. Today we've been celebrating women across our business on our internal social platforms, sharing stories and we've had the opportunity to host a truly insightful live Q&A session between Marnie Jane Millard OBE and Jo Gillard about becoming a leader in the Food Industry. Its important to recognise that International Women’s Day belongs to everyone, it’s an opportunity to look at how diversity benefits us all. #internationalwomensday2025 #iwd2025 #womeninbusiness #womeninmanufacturing #femaleleadership #femaleleaders #foodmanufacturing #foodproduction #foodbusiness #genderdiversity
