At FrieslandCampina, more than 60 colleagues worldwide work every day to improve our Supply Chain. Together we make processes smarter, more efficient and sustainable.

OWOW is transforming lives and operations
With OWOW we continuously improve our shopfloor operations, step by step, plant by plant. But the real success is seen in the happy faces of our colleagues. In San Pedro, Philippines, weekend shifts are a thing of the past. This means our teams have more time to enjoy with their families instead of working overtime.

Performance+: driving excellence 
Performance+ helps us optimize and strengthen our Supply Chain to perform best in class. In just two years, we saved over 500 million euros and freed up more than 160 million euros in cash. That is impact we are proud of.

Cost-2-Serve: empowering commercial teams
With the Cost-2-Serve program, our commercial colleagues gain the insights to understand customer behaviour and make smart, fact-based decisions. This leads to better agreements and stronger collaboration with our customers, benefiting everyone involved.
