Smurfit Kappa was awarded the "Transforming Innovation" award from Kellogg's, in the Americas.
The award was recognition for a recent project in which Smurfit Kappa redesigned Kellogg’s packaging to optimize its supply chain. The Smurfit Kappa team worked closely with Kellogg’s to identify a sustainable and innovative packaging solution requiring fewer cases during transportation.
Smurfit Kappa and Kellogg’s have been working together for more than 20 years.
“Smurfit Kappa is more than just a supplier, it is a business partner,” said Hector Gonzalez, packaging procurement manager at Kellogg’s.
“Besides having shared values as companies, our great teamwork has led us to create truly innovative packaging solutions for Kellogg’s that contribute to growth in their markets," said Marcela Liscano, VP of Smurfit Kappa Pan American sales.
Smurfit Kappa’s operations in the Americas provide packaging solutions for a variety of cereals, bars and snacks in the Kellogg’s portfolio.
