Unilever and Barry Callebaut extend strategic supply agreement

 

Under the renewed strategic supply agreement, originally signed in 2012, Barry Callebaut will focus on delivering the latest chocolate innovations for ice cream to Unilever and as a result drive strategic, long-term growth globally. In addition, the agreement will see Barry Callebaut continue supporting Unilever in achieving its sustainability goals.

“Through this partnership, we can look forward to greater innovation for our well-loved ice cream brands, like Magnum and Ben & Jerry’s, and a closer alignment with our cocoa sustainability goals,” said Willem Uijen, Chief Procurement Officer at Unilever. Rogier van Sligter, President EMEA at Barry Callebaut, added: „With the extended agreement, we are building on the long-term relationship that we have maintained with Unilever over the past decade. Going forward, we will continue to support Unilever’s efforts to achieve its sustainability targets.”
