Miebach, the global supply chain consultancy with 20 offices and a network of 1,000 customers around the world has entered the UK market with an office in Maidstone, Kent. The expansion not only affords companies in the UK better access to Miebach’s services, but the strategic location also enables global companies to draw on its resources to better connect with the UK and Europe.

The UK office will be managed by Peter Surtees, former Kimberley- Clark European Supply Chain Director, who was awarded the prestigious CILT Sir Robert Lawrence Award for an outstanding and sustained contribution to the profession of logistics in 2010.

Peter said: “Miebach is an excellent company that I am proud to bring to the UK. We take a holistic approach to a client’s supply chain, with strategy, business processes and logistics all equally important. Our crossborder reach will be especially useful as the fallout from the ‘Brexit’ referendum forces companies to redress their international supply chain management to comply with new rules and regulations.”

Established in Germany in 1973, Miebach Consulting provides services across the end-to-end supply chain. The company’s global network and multi-sector experience provides strength and depth of knowledge for formulating innovative solutions to customer supply chain challenges.

Miebach employs a worldwide network of experts with local knowledge, both sector and functional, to support projects. The company’s 20 office locations include Indianapolis, Shanghai, Sao Paolo, Bangalore, Dammam and a head office in Germany.
