Social Responsibility
In addition to our sustainability practices on a global scale, Lindt USA promotes volunteerism and community impact at the local level. At our Stratham headquarters, the Lindt USA Green Team identifies and implements sustainable practices across campus, including efforts to reduce energy consumption and minimize waste.
Recently introduced, our Employee Volunteer Program provides one day of paid time off each year for employees to volunteer with a non-profit organization of their choosing. So far, employees have used their volunteer time to build boardwalks for an estuary conservation center, clean up hiking trails with the New Hampshire Forest Society, raise funds for an organization serving children with special needs, harvest organic vegetables for donation to local food banks, and much more—putting into action a core element of the Lindt & Sprungli credo: We want to be recognized as a company which cares for the environment and the communities in which we live and work.
Recognizing Our People
Throughout the year, Lindt recognizes employees in a number of different ways. Whether it's at our Service Awards Luncheons for years of service or at our bi-annual Company Meetings for outstanding performance… milestones are exciting to celebrate. One of our newest peer recognition programs centers around our Core Values and allows people to recognize their colleagues for exemplifying one (or all!) of our Values. These "Most Value-able Players" are recognized with our MVP Awards throughout the year and get to take advantage of parking perks, financial prizes, recognition by our CEO, and more.

About the Seacoast Area
Whether you prefer bright city lights or serene country landscapes, Lindt USA’s centralized Seacoast location offers the best of both worlds.
Exploring the Area Lindt USA is conveniently located in the Tri-State area, meaning you are 10 minutes to Massachusetts and 10 minutes to Maine, so no matter where you’d prefer to live, you have several cities and towns that are ideal for commuting. An hour from the office, you can also visit Portland, Maine, and its thriving seaport with unique art, food, and music scenes, or head south to Boston to shop in Copley Square, take in a Bruins game or enjoy an authentic Italian dinner in the North End. If you’re a fan of weekend road trips, Burlington, Vermont, is only three hours to our west, and New York City is just four hours to our south. Even better – there are bus and train options to all of them!
Portsmouth, NH Known as the Jewel of the Seacoast, downtown Portsmouth is only 10 minutes from the Lindt USA campus and is home to hundreds of restaurants, boutiques, theaters and breweries. Portsmouth is also home to Prescott Park, a 3.5 acre waterfront venue that is free to the public and hosts everything from a Chowder Fest in the spring to a Chili Cook-off in the fall. Additionally, the park is most well-known for the Prescott Park Arts Festival, which has been bringing live theater, dance and music performances to the area since 1974. Enjoying Life in the Seacost
Summertime Activities While all of the seasons are unique in New England, there is nothing like summertime in the Seacoast. With some of the most beautiful coastline in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine, there is always a new beach to walk or a new wave to surf. Lake Winnipesaukee and the mountains to our north offer family-friendly camp sites, hiking, paddle boarding, and kayaking, and only minutes from the office, there are several water-front restaurants, 18-hole golf courses and live music venues. When the summer cools down and autumn sets in, be ready for some of the most beautiful foliage, apple picking and local fall festivals.
Wintertime Activities Regardless of whether you prefer snowmobiling or snowshoeing, winter in New England has a little something for everyone. With a brand new ice skating rink in the middle of Portsmouth’s historical Strawberry Banke, you can take a lesson, free skate, or just enjoy the rink as a spectator with a cup of hot cocoa. For those seeking a faster pace, there are no shortage of ski and snowboard trails, as New England is home to more than 60 different ski lodges and resorts. For our employees’ convenience, we also offer discounted lift tickets available for purchase in our main lobby.
