In February 2011, Unilever launched Partner to Win, a strategic program that forms special partnerships between Unilever and a selection of its key suppliers. Its objective is to provide sustainable growth for both parties.
Unilever has a product portfolio that produces over 400 brands. Some of these brands include Lipton, Knorr, Dove, Axe, Hellmann's and OMO.
In 2013, Unilever selected Verstraete IML as a Partner to Win.
"Verstraete IML has proven its innovative character in the past,” says Thomas Beschenbossel. “The company operates on a global scale, offers solutions for a great many Unilever products and is open, transparent and reliable. And transparency and reliability are the key conditions for an intensive long-term collaboration in which innovation and effective cost management go hand-in-hand. That is what makes Verstraete IML an ideal Partner to Win.”
Unilever selects its partners on the basis of their ability to meet its requirements in different regions. According to Thomas Beschenbossel it comes down to the sum of several strategic factors such as quality and service, an innovative character, financial stability and competitive pricing.
"Along with the injection molders, we support Unilever by supplying technical advice about, for example, the choice of materials,” adds Benedict Adins, key account manager, Unilever Verstraete IML. “We also ensure accurate color harmonization so that different designs and newsletters can be combined. What is more, we determine the supply chain so that we can guarantee production slots. Close cooperation with the injection molders contributes to the success of our partnership with Unilever."
