Staff at one of the best known family firms in South Wales have received recognition for their long service.
The Jenkins Bakery rewards staff with more than 10 years service with an annual lunch at Llanelli’s Stradey Park Hotel.
This year’s lunch saw more than 30 staff (some with more than 20 years’
service with the business) attend the lunch, which was hosted by Jenkins Bakery Operations Director Russell Jenkins and Commercial Director David Jenkins.
David Jenkins said: “We are a third-generation family business and we care passionately about what we do and the people who work in the business. We hold the Investors in People award and we take care in nurturing and developing staff to their full potential. We recognise staff loyalty and long service in a number of ways, including the annual lunch.
“Our company history dates back to 1921, but we don’t plan on resting on our laurels. We have a proud tradition and reputation as a company, but we always have one eye on the future. In fact, this year, will see us open three new shops in South West Wales.”
