Experience the Supply Cycle in our Impact Centre

Created in November 2009, the Saint-Just-en-Chaussée Impact Centre now benefits from a new organisation designed around DS Smith's Supply Cycle vision.

Improving performance

The Impact Centre is a unique concept in the cardboard packaging market and offers visitors an immersive tour programme focused on three areas:

  • Retail store
  • Logistics warehouses
  • Customer’s factory

The Impact Centre encourage exchanges relating to the visitors' expectations along the entire Supply Chain and facilitate conversations with participants from all functions of the business (including Procurement but above all Marketing, Sales, Logistics...).

The Impact Centre helps visitors to see how DS Smith can help them improve their performance of their own business by increasing sales, reducing costsand managing risks. This approach also generates new opportunities when it comes to developing and optimising packaging. The Impact Centre thus aims to highlight the added value that DS Smith can bring to its customers as a Packaging Strategist and emphasises the many competencies associated with the product offering.

A European-level initiative

The Impact Centres are, alongside the PackRight Centres, the pillars for implementing DS Smith's strategy which aims to add as much value as possible for the customers. DS Smith is investing heavily in order to be able to put these unique tools at the disposal of their customers and their sales teams which can be found in most European countries.
