The Co-op is a brand we all recognise and is made up of a diverse set of businesses including 2,500 grocery stores, funeral care, insurance and legal services, employing almost 70,000 people.
Over half of the Co-operative Group’s workforce has worked for the organisation for five years or more. Keen to recognise this loyalty, the Co-op wanted to personally reward each of its colleagues’ work anniversaries.
Co-op appointed Terryberry to create a bespoke, online reward and recognition solution, to ensure all its employees’ work milestones are celebrated and their commitment rewarded by line managers.
Co-op's employees were so happy with their award presentation kits and gifts, they sent in pictures to share their joy.
You really know your programme is having a huge impact when your collegaues are so happy they share their Award experience with the whole world.
"We were really impressed with Terryberry’s collaborative and creative approach in coming up with a solution that works so effectively for us.
The team really took the time to understand our business and what’s important to us and came up with a creative solution that is already having a really positive impact on all our colleagues.”
"Our colleagues are really embracing the programme and it’s been great to receive such fantastic feedback.
The award presentations are celebratory events, and we are seeing a real buzz over social media about them. It’s also great to see pictures of our long-serving colleagues enjoying the gifts they’ve chosen with their points”
