The Global Premedia Network (GPN)
is proud to announce South African Polyflex (Pty) Ltd and Brazilian Clicheria
Blumenau Ltd, as the two new members joining its international ranks. The GPN,
which already consists of several independent and strategically connected
companies, aims to establish mutually beneficial collaboration between all
partners in order to provide superior packaging premedia services for
their FMCG clients worldwide.
“It is a true pleasure to
announce that such technically advanced and experienced partners are joining
our alliance,” stated CSW’s CEO, Laura
Wright. “Our combined experiences and resources allow the GPN to deliver
an unprecedented level of service to our current and future customers,” she
added.
“We are choosing partners who are
not just leaders within their geographic areas but also share our deep
commitment to ensure that our mutual clients have access to the most efficient,
cost-effective and comprehensive solutions, regardless of where in the world
they are producing their
packaging,” said Kai Lankinen, MARVACO’s Chairman.
Brett Pollock, Polyflex Managing
Director states,
“We are honored and excited to be a partner in this global initiative. Our
multiple manufacturing locations across the African continent and long-standing
position as an innovative leader will help GPN’s clients to extend their reach
into this world's fastest-growing economies. This is also a great opportunity
for all of us to share our knowledge and leverage the synergies of our
businesses.”
“International brands need more
attention to their packaging development due to the complexities of multiple
cultures, languages, legal systems and packaging regulations,” noted Marek Skrzynski, CSW’s Technical Director. “As a global
network of well-aligned partners, we have a unique vantage point from which to
identify and provide the most advanced, end-to-end solutions to our clients,
bridging the communication gap and successfully transcending technical,
geographic and cultural boundaries.”
“In addition to state-of-the-art
technology, we also possess the unique knowledge of who-is-who in the South
American packaging market and how to position international FMCGs to be
successful here. We can help brand owners to meet the challenges associated
with preserving their brand consistency, reduce the development cycle and the
associated time to market,” said Volnei
Antonio Alves de Oliveira, the CEO of the Clicheria Blumenau Ltd.
“After all, who else could deliver such passion and professionalism to meet the packaging challenges of international brands, if not a globally coordinated, technically-aligned and locally rooted network of dedicated premedia providers,” echoed Kai Lankinen.
