Körber receives P&G Supplier Excellence Award

Körber has over the past years provided Procter & Gamble (P&G) with storage and picking solutions for major distribution centers that have ensured less product damage and a higher delivery safety as picking errors have been virtually eliminated.

Now P&G recognizes Körber as a supply chain solution provider that has gone above and beyond in providing outstanding support. On December 16, Körber was awarded with P&G’s External Business Partner Excellence Award, which honors suppliers for showing excellence across five key areas: Commercial, Operational, Relationship, Citizenship and Innovation.
“These companies have been among the very best in delivering sustained and exceptional contributions, and we celebrate them for being integral members of our supply ecosystem,” said Ana Elena Marziano, P&G’s Chief Purchasing Officer. “The partnership and collaboration with our supply ecosystem is essential to win — we innovate, solve problems and optimize our supply chains, together.”

Additionally, Körber’s combined storage and picking solution, Körber’s Layer Picker, ensures that P&G’s products are available at the right time according to predefined deadlines, thus enabling on-time delivery.

Körber’s Layer Picker Solution is the global market leader in its application area with more than 45 installations globally.
