Cultural & Linguistic Diversity at Foodstuffs North Island

We’re committed to being a Co-op that celebrates our people, our taonga, so they feel a sense of belonging.

The Diversity & Inclusion Working Group

The D&I Group is made up of a bunch of super-passionate people from our Support Centre and Supply Chain who come together to ensure we are looking at every opportunity to ensure Foodies is an environment where all our people feel welcomed, supported and can thrive.

We’re committed to being a cooperative that authentically reflects the communities we serve across every inch of our Co-op. We welcome courageous behaviour, inspire togetherness, and most importantly we celebrate our people every day for being uniquely them.

Throughout the year we regularly find every opportunity to celebrate, inform and inspire our Foodies whānau on various cultural and linguistic events. Some of our celebrations have included Matariki, Māori Language Week, Samoan Language Week, Diwali, Sign Language Week, Chinese New Year, Ramadan and more.
