Case Study: Barry Callebaut gains manufacturing leadership insights with DVIRC’s Manufacturing Council

Barry Callebaut joins DVIRC’s Manufacturing Council in 2012 to gain executive insight

Barry Callebaut, a world-leading manufacturer of cocoa and chocolate products, faced the common executive challenge of isolation and a lack of peers to consult on complex business problems. Plant Manager Jean-Marc Desheraud sought an external networking group to gain insight and overcome these leadership challenges, ultimately selecting the services of vendor DVIRC.

DVIRC addressed this need by enrolling the executive in its Manufacturing Council. This solution provided a structured peer group that offered valuable experience and collaborative problem-solving. Through this service, Barry Callebaut gained significant insight from fellow manufacturing leaders, fostering a deeper connection to the local business community and enhancing their understanding of manufacturing within Pennsylvania.
