The pandemic hasn't stopped Nature's Pride and its growers from making progress on responsible water use.

Nature's Pride sometimes also receives produce that fails to meet trading standards and customer specifications, but is still of good internal quality and therefore deserves a better destination than the 'waste bin'. Admittedly, this is not always easy as a processing step is required to restore value so the produce can be marketed. This is not part of the core business of Nature's Pride and requires the assistance of third parties. This year we have noticed that our buyers, who are extremely committed to their products that have been grown with such great care and attention, have increased their ability to connect with the food processing industry and vice versa.

Nature's Pride's expansion has started. The official moment took place on Friday 4 September behind the current premises with all the construction team partners in attendance to watch the first pile being driven symbolically into the ground. This signals the start of our expansion, which is expected to become operational at the end of 2021.
