Awards recognise long service

12 September 2008

Colleagues gathered at Branston's Lincoln site to see General Manager Steve Robinson present Sandy Wright, Cliff Jackson, Matt Barker and Tom Bramwell with their long service awards. Sandy received a Rotary watch to commemorate 20 years of service, with Cross Century pens being given to Cliff, Matt and Tom.

Speaking at the presentation, Steve Robinson said: "I am delighted to present these awards which recognise and celebrate the dedication of these four employees. Our people are our most important assets and Sandy, Cliff, Matt and Tom reflect the high quality and dedication of the Branston workforce. It is essential that we have skilled and accomplished staff and I congratulate them all on their achievement."

On receiving her award, Production Operative Sandy said: "I've been working in the packhouse since 1988 and I'm thrilled my commitment has been recognised. I really enjoy working with my colleagues and look forward to working with them for more years to come."

Cliff Jackson is a Forklift Truck driver in the Intake area. "I've seen lots of improvements in machinery and technology over the last decade," he explained. "I'm actually due to retire in November, but I won't be winding down just yet as the factory is really busy."
