Marielle Cochard – Directrice Supply chain, chez Longchamp :
“I am Supply Chain Director at Longchamp. I am in charge of flow management. I have been involved in transport for many years, and I am looking for alternative, new solutions, which will allow us to act in a good way towards the planet. We embarked on the Neoline project because we found people with ambition, patience and know-how. All this corresponds well to the Longchamp house. It is full of energy. We want to take part in this project because it is well constructed and innovative. We hope that the US market is just a beginning.”

Sylvain Charretier :
“I am the Quality and Environment Director of Longchamp. It is a project that fits perfectly with Longchamp’s strategy, since making sustainable products is our objective, it means continuing to evolve and get things moving forward. It is an obvious choice. Working on logistics in this area is essential.”
“[NEOLINE] C’est un projet qui rentre tout à fait dans la stratégie Longchamp, puisque faire des produits durables c’est notre objectif, c’est continuer à évoluer et faire avancer les choses. C’est une évidence. Travailler au niveau logistique dans ce domaine, c’est essentiel.”
