Food & drink marketing agency Jellybean becomes employee-owned
Abstract
Jellybean is ‘thrilled’ to announce that it has taken a significant step forward by becoming an Employee-Owned Trust (EOT).

Every employee now has a stake in Jellybean’s future and will benefit from enhanced job security and a greater sense of wellbeing and purpose. The move benefits not only the team but also clients, who will experience an ‘even deeper level of dedication, creativity and care’ which have earned Jellybean its reputation. 

Fiona Rickard, founder and chief executive of Jellybean, said:

The passionate and dedicated people at Jellybean are the heart and soul of the business and the foundation on which we have built 37 successful years. I wanted to leave a legacy that appreciates their loyalty and hard work, respects their contribution, and sustains our culture and values so that every employee feels invested in the future of the agency and benefits from its achievements in the years ahead.

Established in 1987 with its heartland in hospitality and foodservice, Jellybean has grown year on year to become one of the leading integrated food and drink agencies and now houses not only a foodservice division as well as a specialist consumer and retail division.

Susan Wickes, managing director at Jellybean, added: “It’s an exciting new phase for jellybean and for our clients who we thank for being part of our journey.

“The EOT means that we’re not only fostering an environment where everyone’s voice matters, but every member of our team now has a vested interest in our clients’ success. As always, you can expect the same level of dedication and partnership from us that you have grown to trust, but now with an even greater sense of achievement and ownership.”
