The eaga Trust was set up in 1999 for the purpose of promoting employee wellbeing, engagement and ownership in the workplace in the belief that when employees feel like partners in their business, they deliver better day to day results which in turn produce a profitable, sustainable and fulfilling business to the benefit of all.

This unique Trust, originally known as The eaga Partnership Trust or ePT, was formed in 1999 when North East based eaga Partnership Limited, was set up as an employee owned business by John Clough to purchase eaga Ltd, a non-profit distributing business.
