SUPPLY CHAIN MOVEMENT, No.40, Q1 2021
Profile
In 2017 Christoph Häusler had the opportunity to design an integrated end-to-end supply chain from scratch. He had a clear mission: Support and enable a fast-moving, home hygiene business and rejuvenate profitable growth. As executive vice president for Reckitt Benckiser’s home hygiene division he has led the transformation of the supply chain which has put power back into the markets and allowed profit to be pumped into innovation. For someone who believes that the business is done in the market, COVID has grounded him in Amsterdam for nearly 12 months. Nevertheless, in a turbulent year the company has regained market leadership, he says. “COVID has proven how resilient and responsible our business is. During the last 12 months our priority has been to keep everyone safe but also to ensure that we deliver even more than promised to our customers. And with a mindset that will allow us to continue to be successful after the pandemic.” Interview conducted by Martijn Lofvers and Oskar Verkamman, written by Helen Armstrong
Christoph Häusler was born in Münster, Germany and now lives in Amsterdam with his wife and three children (aged 13, 15, 17).
