At Hellmann, we believe that behind every employee is a strong support system that makes success possible. This year, teams across the United States celebrated FAMILY Day, an event dedicated to recognizing not only our people but also their families who are an essential part of the Hellmann community.

Peter Huwel, CEO Americas:

Family Day is one of those moments that reminds us what Hellmann is really about. It is more than logistics and business, it is about people. Seeing our teams relax, laugh, and share the day with their loved ones shows the strength of our community. That is what makes Hellmann special. 

The celebrations were filled with energy and joy. Families enjoyed picnics, shared meals, and spent the day together in true community spirit. Kids laughed their way through bouncy houses and games, everyone joined in raffles, and music brought everyone together to celebrate the bonds that make Hellmann unique.

Vanessa-Mendoza Barahona:

Planning this year’s family picnic was a true joy, and seeing it all come together made it even more rewarding. It was wonderful to meet everyone's families, including the furry ones! Also, to share such a fun day filled with laughter, connection, and lasting memories. These are the moments that strengthen our bonds beyond the workplace.

Maricela Salgado from our Chicago branch shared her excitement about the event:

It was a pleasure planning this special event alongside my amazing colleagues. Seeing all our employees and their families come together and have such a great time made it all worth it. Looking forward to many more memorable moments like this! 

Family Day is more than an annual tradition. It is an expression of our commitment to people and community, a way of strengthening the connections that go beyond the workplace. By investing in these moments, we show our appreciation for the families who stand behind our employees and remind everyone that together we are stronger. 

Claudia Caicedo:

What an incredible day! Families came together, made new connections, and created memories that will last a lifetime. Huge thanks to our amazing vendors for bringing the magic with their outstanding service and creativity, you made the experience unforgettable. 

This year’s Family Day was a celebration of joy, gratitude, and belonging, because at Hellmann, Relationship Matters.
