DS Smith Works with Nestlé to Provide Packaging and Displays for Different Nestlé Brands

DS Smith Wins Nestle Supplier Award

The multinational food and beverage company’s award recognises the supplier who has played a significant role in helping Nestlé achieve its aims throughout the year and delivering a service beyond expectations.

DS Smith has been working with Nestlé since 2006 providing packaging and displays for different Nestlé brands, including Maggi and Nescafé, to 12 Nestlé factories across the UK.

Tony Foster, sales and marketing director for DS Smith’s UK packaging division, said: “To be recognised as the best out of more than 500 other UK suppliers for the work we deliver is testament to the hard work that the team both here and at Nestlé put in to create the best possible packaging for the product.”

Mike Rutherford, DS Smith’s business lead UK & Ireland for Nestlé, was separately recognised individually with the ‘Above and Beyond’ award for going the extra mile in the work he delivers for the food company.

Francesco van Westrenen, Customer Business Unit Director for DS Smith’s European packaging division, said: “After being recognised as Nestlé Best Innovation Supplier in Europe and Best Supplier in Germany last year it was clear that we understood Nestlé needs, whether that be design, market insight, supply-chain expertise or quality management. This third award truly reflects our unique approach to the business’s requirements and shows our commitment to deliver on joint targets with Nestlé.”

DS Smith operates in over 20 countries and employs around 22,000 people.
