1 whole year of being a Employee owned business🎉🎉🎉 and what a year it’s been!

Thank you so much to all of our lovely customers for your continued support! It means the world to all of us💞

🎉Swansons is now Employee Owned🎉

Today is a day of celebration at Swansons! We as a group of employees are truely blessed to have Magnus as our mentor and MD. Since the day I walked into the building 6 years ago I knew I had made the right decision, I’m one of the very lucky ones that can say I love my job and wholeheartedly believe in the company and that’s down to the man who has built this business from scratch. Magnus from myself and all the team THANK YOU 😊

Established in 1991 by managing director Magnus Swanson, Swansons Food Wholesalers began as a single greengrocer shop with two staff. Thirty years on, it has grown into an extensive wholesale business, with a forty-strong team working from depots in Inverness, Nairn and Elgin. The company supplies fresh, locally-grown produce to independent hotels, restaurants and shops across the Highlands, and also holds contracts for care homes, schools, nurseries and colleges in the area. It has been supplying schools in the Moray Council area for 18 years and in the Highland Council area for ten.

Earlier in the year, Magnus received an offer for the business from a larger wholesaler based in the south. While he determined that the offer wasn’t right for Swansons, it prompted him to begin considering his eventual exit from the business.

On exploring his options, Magnus said: “When it comes to considering your exit, one of the most obvious options is a trade sale. However, I was concerned that selling to a remote buyer might see one of the branches closed, staff laid off, or clients resigned. We have a loyal and long-serving team at Swansons, and I wanted to ensure their jobs were secure. It was at this point that I began to consider employee ownership. I had seen some articles in the media and also knew that a couple of our clients were employee-owned. I thought that employee ownership could be a good fit with our goals and values and would allow me to gradually step back from the business over a number of years.”
