Your Role in Our Supply Chain

FrieslandCampina operates a wholly owned, end-to-end supply chain that takes our products from grass to glass. This makes our company unique. It lies at the beating heart of everything we do and is as complex as it is extensive.

We have agreed that we will process all the milk our member dairy farmers deliver. This means our supply and demand planning must be perfectly aligned at all times!

Tasked to ensure the efficient and effective production of every drop of milk supplied by our member dairy farmers, we are facing a number of challenges in terms of our day-to-day running, ongoing improvement, and future direction.

You are dependent on the dairy volumes that are delivered

“The complexity within our supply chain organisation is that we work with a natural product and therefore it needs to be processed efficient and effectively. You are dependent on the dairy volumes that are delivered, and you never know exactly how much this will be. It is our responsibility to get the most out of this milk. This asks for a high level of analytical skills, which I was personally looking for in a job.” – Chantal van Dijke, Supply Chain Planner

Get More Out of Milk

Milk valorisation and allocation adds value to the business of FrieslandCampina from its very core: the milk delivered by our member dairy farmers. Every day, this milk supply needs to be allocated to the right combination of products in our supply chain and across our businesses. Every decision we take has an impact on the company results, both short and long term.
