what we’ve achieved
Our BEST (Bulla Excellence Systems and Tools) program is designed to ensure we are better utilising systems, tools, and data to improve our operational excellence. This has enabled us to dramatically improve our performance against rigorous third-party food, safety, and quality standards such as SQF and customer proprietary standards. By taking a data-led approach, we are able to address any challenges in real time to ensure we sustain and improve our high food safety and quality standards.
In FY22 we launched a company-wide Food Safety Cultural Maturity Action Plan to drive continuous improvement in food safety culture maturity, by focussing on people and behaviours as critical enablers for the manufacture of safe food. We continue to build on this plan year on year as one of our “must do” strategic initiatives.
what’s next
Following Bulla’s recent food safety culture survey, we will be working with Dr Lone Jespersen, one of the world’s foremost experts in food safety culture programs, to assess our manufacturing sites and support us to take our food safety culture maturity to the next level. We are also active participants in Dairy Regtech, initiated by our regulator, Dairy Food Safety Victoria. This is another program designed to support culture change, using data to drive food safety performance.
enriching communities
We’ve committed to reinvest $1M every year into existing and new regional development programs that benefit the communities we operate in.
creating a great place to work
Our people sit at the heart of all we do, and we are committed to building a diverse workplace, supporting the development of our employees, and ensuring their health, safety, and wellbeing.
