Sarantis Group is transforming 3rd party procurement with AI-driven insights and a sustainability-first mindset, redefining the function as a strategic value creator
In an era defined by technological disruption, supply chain volatility and mounting sustainability pressures, procurement teams face unprecedented challenges. For Dimitris Antonopoulos, Head of Group Procurement for 3rd Party at Sarantis Group, these challenges represent opportunities to fundamentally reshape how the organisation operates.
With Over 20 acquisitions in the last 20 years and operations spanning cosmetics, home care Solutions & Health Care, Sarantis Group has built a procurement function that balances complexity with efficiency, scale with agility and innovation with sustainability.
Scaling through growth and acquisitions The recent acquisition of Stella Pack provides insight into how Sarantis approaches post-merger integration. For procurement teams, acquisitions bring both hurdles and opportunities
“ Integrating new acquisitions always brings both challenges and opportunities,” Dimitris explains.“ I would say the key challenges include aligning different operating systems, which can initially limit information flow, and harmonising diverse ways of working, internal structures or even corporate cultures.
