Together with our suppliers, we share a common goal and mission: to delight our customers with the perfect can, every time.

Our suppliers have a significant impact on the can-making process across many touch points and these awards are recognition of their endeavours and achievements in delivering the same level of value and quality to Rexam, that our customers expect from us. We pride ourselves on the collaborative relationships we have with our suppliers and appreciate the efforts they go to in order to consistently perform across all areas of our Supplier Excellence Programme.”
