Highlights on Nexans Suppliers Day 2022 – 2nd edition to amplify our E³ impact with key Suppliers

The second edition of the Nexans Suppliers Day took place on September 6th, 2022. A great moment for Nexans with its key Suppliers energizing our long-term common roadmap balancing Economic, Environment and Engagement in alignment with Nexans E³ performance model.

Being part of Nexans' ecosystem, Suppliers strongly contribute to securing our Supply Chain as well as developing a more differentiated, competitive and sustainable offering.

This event was the opportunity to update our preferred suppliers on our business roadmap, priorities and success stories. We made a particular focus on two priorities with Suppliers, Innovation and Sustainability, with deep dive presentations of Jérôme Fournier (Corporate Vice President Innovation, Services & Growth) and Olivier Chevreau (Vice President Sustainability), complemented by roundtables. 

It has been followed by Suppliers’ one-to-one sessions in order to concretely review the status and deliverables of the customized E³ roadmap defined last year.

Such roadmaps with all key-Suppliers back Nexans Electrification ambition up in a more volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment.

On the Economical front, Nexans Suppliers not only contribute to cash and total cost competitiveness but also secure business continuity, reduce complexity and bring innovative solutions.

On the Environmental front, Nexans is changing gear with its Suppliers, referring to C02 competitiveness based on facts and figures. Great success stories were shared.

On the third E, long term Engagement is expected. Jérôme Chiquet, Nexans Group Purchasing VP, insisted on the fundamentals of our relationship: “Looking for value, we invest and count on key suppliers to back-up our own engagement toward Nexans Customers … This works with mutual preference, 100% reliability, transparency and factual E³ performance.”

Nexans considers its strategic Suppliers as part of its ecosystem. Vincent Dessale, Chief Operating Officer and Senior Executive Vice President of Building & Territories Northern Business Group, highlighted: “we are more and more partnering with our Customers, offering new solutions, focusing on Innovation… this cannot be done without you, it is an ecosystem working together!”

Finally, Christopher Guérin, Nexans CEO, concluded about the importance of sharing the same values and goals: “We want to feel the level of responsibility on the E³. As an ecosystem working all together, we can do a fantastic revolution.”

We’re grateful to be working with suppliers who contribute to Electrify the Future with us!
