St. Helen’s.

Founded in 1980 by the Bielak family, St. Helen’s Meat Packers Limited began business with seven employees. Over the next 27 years, growth was steady and controlled, with major facility expansions in 1996 and 2002. Today we have grown to employ over 300 hardworking, dedicated employees, many of whom have been with us since the early days.

Senior management. Every day.

While St. Helen’s has grown over the years, we’re not too big to continue to give the level of service that got us here. Our management is available and responsive every day. Should something come up that needs to be dealt with immediately, it gets done. What this means for customers, employees and suppliers is simple. Decisions are made, problems are solved and agreements are reached – in a timely and efficient manner.

Teamwork that works.

Skilled, dependable, loyal employees are the heartbeat of any company. At St. Helen’s we are extremely proud of our record in attracting and keeping exactly those kind of hard working, career minded people.
