Orora has won the Coca-Cola Amatil 2017 Partner of the Year Award for its business performance.
The top honour for an Amatil supplier, the award recognises excellence in all aspects of the supplier partnership, from the fundamentals of a supply relationship, through to best-practice engagement and a commitment to shared improvement and innovation.
In particular, at the Partner for Growth Awards, Orora was acknowledged for its unwavering commitment to the Amatil business.
The Orora team was described as being "relentless in its efforts to bring new ideas to the table, while making investments in technology and capabilities that deliver long term value to Amatil".
Speaking after the presentation in Sydney, group general manager Simon Bromell said the award reflected the hard work and dedication of the Orora team.
“This is a significant achievement for our business with one of our most important Australasian customers. It reflects the outstanding work of people across Orora, including our teams in cans, glass, closures, the decoration centre of excellence (DCE) and fibre. We take great pride being a customer-led business and the award demonstrates that we are delivering on this,” he said.
Amcor Flexibles was also recognised with a Quality Award in the Partner for Growth Awards.
"Amcor Flexibles continually delivered high-quality packaging materials, minimising Coca-Cola Amatil’s risk of line stoppages and out of stocks," Sarah Cook, group chief procurement officer at Coca-Cola Amatil, said.
