Kellogg's Focuses on Supply Chain Cost Savings

November 11, 2013
Supply Chain Standard

It said optimization of supply chain infrastructure would include actions designed to increase efficiency and improve margins, including the consolidation of facilities and the elimination of excess capacity.

In addition, it said: "Global Business Services will create increased productivity throughout the organization"¦ And a new global focus on categories will include the continuation of a process designed to create a regional, category-based model.

The company anticipates that the programme will result in total cumulative, pre-tax charges of between $1.2bn and $1.4bn; and the program's non-cash costs are expected to be between $275m and $325m.

Cash savings are expected to reach an annual run-rate of between $425m and $475m in 2018.

"We are excited by the potential and opportunities we see for growth in the categories in which we operate," said John Bryant, Kellogg Company's president and chief executive officer.

These actions will set a foundation for our Sustainable Growth operating principle."
