Vittoria Values

1 - VFB Values - Different.png

We are not a big multinational or a small business and often don't follow the same processes as other organisations, so you have to be adaptable.

 

We are not for everyone. We are disruptors in our industry.

2 - VFB Values - Family.png

Family is everything and building relationships is so important to us. We connect authentically with everyone we deal with, be it fellow team members, suppliers or customers.

We like to have fun along the way and not take ourselves too seriously.

3 - VFB Values - Tattoo.png

At Vittoria everyone is a brand ambassador. We believe in and are proud of the brands we sell.

We straighten shelves when we go into supermarkets and try to promote our products wherever we go.

4 - VFB Values - Coffee.png

Every single person in our business helps achieve the end result - a beverage in the hands of the consumer.

 

Working cross functionally is vital to our success and everyone pitches in to get the job done. Being a skilled barista is one of the highest accolades you can receive at Vittoria.

Our Mission

Building brands in step together with our customers for greater profit. 

An ancient military formation, the "Phalanx Strategy", is used to symbolise our Mission Statement. The brands are our shields and offer protection while we all move forward in step together. And the strategy dictates that as a group, people are a far greater force than as individuals.

Following our mission statement enables us to achieve our purpose and make a positive difference in the lives of people we connect with.

"If you seek enlightenment for yourself simply to enhance yourself and your position you missed the purpose; if you seek enlightenment for yourself to enable you to serve others, you are with purpose."

We pride ourselves on building relationships with our trading partners. From our association with award winning restaurants, leading cafés and prestigious hotels, to our partnerships with supermarkets, overseas distributors and suppliers, we approach every partner as an opportunity to grow together and share in the success of our brands.

Vito, Driver NSW - employed 52 years

Would never have imagined that the 16 yr old pimply long haired kid who I took out on his first day of work experience 52 years ago would one day go on and become my boss and own the company.
