Each Person and Hickory’s Smokehouse Collaborate to Empower Teams with Recognition and Benefits

Hickory’s Smokehouse is furthering their award-winning commitment to creating an outstanding work environment for their teams by partnering with Each Person to deliver an extensive range of employee benefits to their 3000 employees.

Hickory’s Smokehouse is the fastest growing southern smokehouse restaurant group in the UK. Serving authentically sourced Southern American recipes to hungry customers, Hickory’s are dedicated to delivering a welcoming and unforgettable dining experience to their guests.  

That being said, the company is passionate about prioritising its teams just as much as its guests. As the winner of The Publican Awards’ Best Employer of 2025, Hickory’s Smokehouse proudly, “invest as much in our people as we do in our food, brand, and overall guest experience”.

As part of their ongoing commitment to fostering a supportive and positive workplace culture, Hickory’s Smokehouse has teamed up with Each Person, an employee benefits, rewards, and recognition platform designed to help teams cut the cost of everyday essentials and special treats, while also supporting financial, mental, and physical wellbeing.

Recognising Hard Work and Dedication

Each Person’s recognition tool will provide Hickory’s Smokehouse with a unique opportunity to regularly show appreciation to their team, honour important occasions, and simply say, 'Thank you.' Not only does the platform allow managers to appreciate their team, but it also empowers peer-to-peer recognition with instant, personalised virtual Ecards; cultivating a sense of community and connectivity at every level of the workplace.

Through the recognition platform Hickory’s Smokehouse will be able to flexibly reward teams for their hard work and dedication. The Each Person shop offers a huge range of products, vouchers and experiences with unbeatable cashback from the most popular retailers such as Amazon, Currys, Tesco, Nandos, ASOS and more; there’s something for everyone.

On top of this, Hickory’s Smokehouse teams now have access to a wide range of perks and benefits aimed at easing the financial burden of everyday expenses through schemes such as the discounted Diesel card, exclusive deals and discounts.

Caring for Employee Wellbeing

Hickory’s Smokehouse is launching with Each Person’s Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) to provide 24/7 wellbeing support for their team. Through this service, all members of Hickory’s will have unlimited access to free, confidential counselling and resources to help them navigate life’s challenges. By offering this support, Hickory’s demonstrates a commitment to caring for their team, not just at work, but beyond as well.
