Accounting Manager

Imagine being part of a growing team focused on introducing Asian Comfort Food to the North American market.
- You are eager to be part of the change from a small ethnic food company to a mainstream solution provider to some of the largest grocery retailers and food service companies in the country.

Change is at the heart of Hon’s vision for the future. We look to be a leader in the rapidly changing Asian and Specialty Food category. We currently have several manufacturing facilities in the Vancouver and Richmond area: the main production, head office and distribution centre in our new Richmond facility, an SQF certified / federally licensed meat plant on SE Marine Drive at Knight Street and we have a smaller production facility in North Richmond.

Over the past 13 years, Hon’s has significantly increased in size by adding three new production facilities and expanding its product offering. Our plan is for continued growth - with investments in our new facility including new industrial production lines and the introduction of new products. Hon’s will focus on creating more premium and ready-to-eat products and provide new ideas / solutions for the North American market. Through its wholly owned packaging division, Trupack is providing innovative packaging solutions to the food industry. The formation of Trupack two years ago embodies our entrepreneurial culture - leveraging our strength in food production into providing packaging options to the market and challenging the status quo.

Our goal is to double our consolidated revenue within the next two years. If you are the person who is ready to take the next step in your career and grow your skill set with a company that is growing very fast in next few years, Hon’s is the place for you.
