Inpacs celebrates its 10thbirthday at the show
With a 220sq.m stand placed directly at the front main entrance, the Inpacs Stand in Hall 2.101 was a central meeting point for members, interested visitors and decision-makers of the industry.
“With members from 36 countries and guests from 130 countries informing themselves about the benefits of Inpacs, the international aspect of the organisation was fully conveyed during this truly successful edition of ISSA/Interclean 2014,” said José Del Pino, Inpacs CEO.
“First analyses have shown that the numbers of visitors and the quality of the customer conversations have highly increased compared to earlier editions. This confirms, once again, our assessment that our international services gain more and more importance for customers and that Inpacs is THE partner for both small and large businesses.”
We understand that much of this success stems from the great support from Inpacs’ local Dutch member Hazet as well as the presence of the organisation’s International Key Account team, making this year’s trade show a success-story of which the entire Inpacs and its members will be able to draw benefits from also for their local markets.
As well as enjoying its fifth consecutive participation at the show, Inpacs also celebrated its 10th anniversary. The Headquarters team, members and the top managers from the strategic suppliers at Church De Duif, reflected upon past achievements and discussed future steps to ensure the ongoing success of the group’s participation.
During this event, it was officially announced that Adolf Kruse has stepped down as Chairman of the Board after 10 successful years, and that he will be succeeded by Dr. Jeremy Hodge (pictured), President of Nationwide Hygiene Supplies and Inpacs member in UK and Ireland. The position of Vice-Chairman will be held by Kai Kruse, Chairman of the German Inpacs member, Igefa. Further members of the Board are Hanne Martine Vedeler, CEO of Norengros in Norway, and Stéphane Fournier, President of Adisco in France, both the Inpacs members in those countries.
Inpacs celebrated its 10th Anniversary with a spectacular gala dinner event at De Duif Church in Amsterdam city centre together with 250 guests from all member organisations across Europe, Israel, the US and Australia as well as presidents of Inpacs’ strategic suppliers.
