In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, companies must balance efficiency, cost control, and sustainability. Supply chain transformation goes beyond technology and requires a change in mindset among employees.
Walter Vermeer, Director of Logistics Excellence at FrieslandCampina, faces this challenge daily. As a global leader in dairy and the second-largest exporter after Heineken, FrieslandCampina drives change through the “Our Way of Working” program. This initiative improves efficiency, enhances working conditions, and integrates logistics with technology and corporate culture. A key element is the “Cost to Serve” program, which uses AI and data analysis to optimize logistics, reduce costs, and align operations with customer demand.
