Interpet shows they care for people just as much as pets


Interpet Limited has been manufacturing aquatic and pet products for over half a century and remains as passionate today - about developing innovative and trustworthy products that make caring for creatures at home enjoyable and successful for everyone - as when the business was founded. 

The company is equally passionate about caring for its staff and in 2012 signed up to ‘Working with Investors in People’. Their people management processes were benchmarked against best practice as evidenced by the Investors in People Core Standard Indicators and in August 2014 the business gained Investors in People Core Standard accreditation. Less than a year later in July 2015 everyone was absolutely delighted when the Company were awarded Investors in People Silver Standard.

Investor’s in People is the UK’s leading accreditation for business improvement through people management, and provides a wealth of resources for business to innovate, improve and grow, with a focus on good people making great business.

Paul Devoy, Head of Investors in People, said ‘Achieving Investors in People Silver Standard is something any organisation should be truly proud of. It is a sign of a company which is very committed to good people management practice and we’d like to congratulate Interpet Limited on their achievement.’

Commenting on the Silver award, Mark Hoskins, Managing Director, said: "Not being a company to rest on its laurels we have been working hard since first achieving Investors In People Core Standard to further enhance our people management strategies and make Interpet an even greater place to work for all our colleagues.

"We were over the moon last month when, following a rigorous 2 day external assessment, it was confirmed that we had been awarded Investors in People Silver Standard. This is a fantastic achievement since currently only 6% of Investors in People UK accredited organisations have gained Silver"
