At Herbaland, we believe diversity is more than something to tick off a list. It is part of who we are. With a team from over 15 different countries, celebrating diversity means recognizing the unique perspectives, backgrounds, and voices that shape our work every single day.
What Does Diversity Mean?
Diversity is not just about visible differences like culture, language, or ethnicity. It is about embracing all the experiences, skills, and viewpoints that each person brings to the table. An inclusive workplace promotes creativity, problem solving, and innovation. When people feel seen and included, they are empowered to share their best ideas. That is where true growth happens, and is part of how Herbaland has grown since its inception in 2009.
Why Diversity Matters to Us
As a Canadian company, Herbaland reflects the multicultural fabric of our country. As mentioned our diverse team consists of people from over 15 different countries. Each person brings in their own strengths and experience, creating a synergistic effect within the company. This is especially beneficial as a company that exports its products to over 40 different countries around the world. This diversity helps us connect with our global customers in meaningful ways, ensuring our products and stories resonate across cultures and communities.
Diversity also strengthens how we live our mission: making health and wellness accessible to everyone. By hiring inclusively and partnering with organizations like Aspire Richmond and the Canucks Autism Network, we are proud to create opportunities for individuals who are often underrepresented and overlooked in the workforce.
Celebrating Diversity Month
This Diversity Month, we are taking time to celebrate the people behind Herbaland. Through shared stories, cultural celebrations, and team activities, we are highlighting the beauty of our differences while reminding ourselves of the values that unite us such as inclusivity, respect, and community.
We also see this as an opportunity to reflect on how we can continue to grow. Diversity is not a milestone but an ongoing commitment. Every action, from the way we collaborate internally to how we show up in the community, is a chance to build a more inclusive future.
Moving Forward Together
Diversity is important because it makes us stronger, more compassionate, drives better business outcomes. A diverse team brings broader perspectives, which leads to stronger problem solving and more innovative ideas. It also allows us to better understand and connect with our global customers, creating products and experiences that truly resonate across markets. At Herbaland, we are proud to celebrate Diversity Month not only as a cultural milestone but as a reflection of the inclusive values that fuel our growth all year round.
