Building on 20 years of cooperation in the UK, the new five-year agreement covers 15 food manufacturing and office locations in eight countries across Europe including the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Poland and France.
ISS will provide catering, cleaning, grounds maintenance, mechanical and electrical engineering maintenance, pest control, property services, reception services, security and waste management as part of the new contract.
“The new agreement with Heinz is a significant expansion of a strong long-term relationship between our two companies.
“ISS has for more than 18 years successfully provided services to the Kitt Green plant in UK. We are delighted that Heinz has trusted us with this new agreement where we will be managing key locations for Heinz in Europe,” said Jeff Gravenhorst, group chief executive for ISS A/S.
Heinz procurement director Dave Newton said: “We expect our suppliers to take brand protection very seriously. It is very important to us that our service partners can support our global leadership positions and deliver strong risk management.”
Gravenhorst added: “ISS has experienced increased demand from international and regional companies interested in more integrated outsourcing. We have built a platform enabling ISS to self-deliver a complete set of facility services such as catering, property, cleaning, support and security services in countries and regions across the world.
“This offering is particularly relevant for customers looking for consistent and transparent service delivery with a strong focus on risk management across several countries, regionally or globally.”
