Lars has over 18 years of professional experience in various functions within the supply chain (production, purchasing, supply chain planning, delivery bulk and packaged goods, customer service). As Global Head Supply Chain Management at Eckart GbmH, Lars is responsible for customer service, logistics, demand planning and S&OP. His current focus is to drive continuous improvement of systems and processes after a major system change. The (usual) challenge is to become more cost-efficient while supporting business growth in a highly diversified product portfolio. Another key aspect is to identify the value drivers for customers and in light of this, developing the use of a logistics platform in conjunction with Altana Corporate Logistics that works to serve as the information hub for all major logistics service providers.
