“ We have some ongoing plans to continue to invest and potentially increase this 50 % to a higher level in the future .”
Water resource management , including the recovery of 20 m ³ of rainwater , reinforces Ceva ’ s commitment in this area .
“ It ’ s a relatively small thing ,” Jean-Marcel continues , “ but it helps to create consistency and coherence in our approach around sustainability .”
Supply chain priorities Looking to the future , Jean-Marcel cites three main priorities for Ceva Animal Health from a supply chain perspective .
The first surrounds the major ongoing transformation of its supply chain planning operating model , which is due to go live in the next few months and will be gradually rolled out over the course of two to three years .
“ It ’ s a massive project and investment to transform and optimise the way we operate our supply chain planning ,” Jean-Marcel explains .
Ceva ’ s supply chain leader also points to a € 75m ( US $ 78m ) expansion of the Ceva Phylaxia manufacturing plant in Hungary , which is scheduled to open in 2026 and slated to produce eight billion vaccine doses annually .
He continues : “ We ’ re looking at other opportunities to optimise our logistics and distribution costs . In fact , it ’ s one of the top priorities of our strategic plan .
