A Colleague-Owned Partnership

Involvement. Naturally, Colleague Owned.

 

It’s all in the name. Involvement brands are about people getting involved. This is why our colleagues own the Involvement group in an Employee Ownership Trust.

 

We radically transformed ourselves from a traditional family firm into a performing people-first business. So this ownership model is the natural evolutionary step that lets us continue our journey, in exactly the way we want. Whether that’s changing the game in rigid packaging supply and manufacture, general pallet based product fulfilment, or whatever comes next.

 

Our colleague-owners have never been more committed to delivering exceptional service and strengthening the partnerships we’ve built.

 

This feeling extends in just the same way to our customers and our business partners. We want us to get the very best out of each other.

 

What is Colleague Ownership?

What does colleague-owned mean?

The majority of Involvement’s shares have been sold to a trust, which holds them for the benefit of all colleagues.

 

Why?

  • It strengthens long-term stability.
  • It recognises the commitment and expertise of our colleagues and drives an ‘ownership mindset’.
  • Most importantly, it protects what defines us: our culture and our values.

 

Who benefits?

Colleagues:

  • The future of the business is secure.
  • It cultivates “owners mindset”, and builds resilient organisations. These are the qualities that set employee ownership apart, and why the EOT remains the strongest succession route for Directors/Business Owners who prioritise their people, care deeply about their legacy, and want their business to thrive for decades to come.

 

Customer, suppliers and partners:

  • Our team, now colleague-owners in the future of the business, has never been more committed to delivering exceptional service and strengthening the partnerships we’ve built.
