Servant Leadership

Servant Leadership is a leadership philosophy and a hallmark of the Cardinal Culture. Servant leaders empower their work teams and give back to their employees, turning the traditional leadership pyramid upside down. Instead of people working to serve the leader, the leader exists to inspire and equip the people they influence.
I love working at Cardinal. Cardinal keeps your mind always working. Something is always new. People are amazing and everyone helps each other. You are never alone. Your always have somebody behind you helping you out.
- Benvinda Da Silva, Lead Hand
Cardinal is big on self-development. Brent always said ‘if someone wants to do something else, talk to your supervisor, manager or me.’ I used to pack burgers and now as National Account Manager I look after the largest foodservice distributor in North America. My own path, like so many others here, is a testament to the Cardinal culture.
- George Da Costa, National Account Manager - Food Service
It’s very important in production to have people with knowledge around you. It makes you confident knowing they have your back. I feel very comfortable in this place. We have a very strong bond. There is a special Cardinal dna of people helping each other in their jobs.
- Paula Quintal, Pack Off Team
I came to Cardinal only for a few months to get a first job in Canada and here I am over 25 years later. The Cator family established the standard that nobody is afraid to talk to Brent or Ralph. There is always an open door here. They create the opportunity for the employees. Everybody here feels that they are part of the success of the company.
