“We pay special attention to advancing and motivation of our employees”, the head of the GLBA's German office Thomas Reiner says. “We encourage our employees to participate in different seminars, trainings, conferences and international exchange programs. Team spirit is also an important concept, and besides team work we like team building and carry it out at least three times a year in full range of forms”.

Our PR-director Ekaterina Lavrova has recently visited B+P office. We share her short video report: 

 

«The joint work of GLBA agencies on international projects will let us be even more effective for our customers. Fundamental understanding of particularity of different world cultures, “insider” information about different regional markets and speed of interaction are the key advantages of GLBA», — Thomas Reiner says. We asked him to tell us about key customer preferences in packaging design.

So, in Germany the following may be strong arguments to the benefit of one or another product:

·      — «Made in Germany» marking

·      — Simple, precise and direct explanation of product's advantages

·      — Ergonomic and rationalized from the perspective of user experience design: ease in opening the package, portioning, convenience of reuse
