Check in to the sweet spot.

About Me

Wel­co­me to the web­site of K2Co, my con­sul­ting ser­vice for the food and bevera­ge indus­try.
With over 30 years of expe­ri­ence at renow­ned com­pa­nies in the sup­pli­er indus­try, I foun­ded K2Co in Novem­ber 2022.

My exper­ti­se includes know­ledge of mar­kets, pro­ducts and tech­no­lo­gies as well as the asso­cia­ted value chain.
My focus com­pe­ten­ci­es are within rese­arch and deve­lo­p­ment as well as pro­duct manage­ment and main­ly shaped by my 22 years in divi­sio­nal manage­ment posi­ti­ons.

I am ener­gi­zed by cus­to­mer rela­ti­onships based on trust, sports­man­ship in com­pe­ti­ti­on and the rea­liza­ti­on of results.
I am inspi­red by the chal­lenges of an indus­tri­al sup­p­ly chain and the enri­ching exch­an­ge with neigh­bor­ing disci­pli­nes within the value chain.
I enjoy inves­t­ing in gre­at teams and func­tio­ning pro­ces­ses as well as the con­ti­nuous deve­lo­p­ment of struc­tures.
I am pas­sio­na­te about the pro­duct and being able to direct­ly influence such important fac­tors as good tas­te, nut­ri­tio­nal value and sus­tainable action.

K2Co takes a very simp­le approach – whe­re you need sup­port, I am the “Co” at your side.
A prac­ti­tio­ner with many years of indus­try expe­ri­ence and exten­si­ve exper­ti­se.
Pro­ject sup­port indi­vi­du­al­ly tail­o­red to your needs with the self-con­cep­ti­on of working tog­e­ther to imple­ment the opti­mal solu­ti­on for you.

TWO LETTERS – ONE PROMISE – THE “CO” AT YOUR SIDE.

My Services

My ran­ge of ser­vices is gene­ral­ly geared to the needs of the indus­try and is based on my main com­pe­ten­ci­es in the are­as of rese­arch & deve­lo­p­ment as well as pro­duct manage­ment.

My offer is aimed equal­ly at start-ups, small and medi­um-sized enter­pri­ses, as well as lar­ge com­pa­nies.

As your “Co”, I will be hap­py to sup­port you indi­vi­du­al­ly from the first impul­se to imple­men­ta­ti­on and will be at your dis­po­sal in the form of a coope­ra­ti­on that best suits your needs.

With ope­ra­tio­nal inte­gra­ti­on in a man­da­te as an inte­rim mana­ger and in the wider ran­ge of topics:

  • For direct exch­an­ge and the con­tri­bu­ti­on of addi­tio­nal exper­ti­se.
  • For taking over inter­me­dia­ry and net­wor­king acti­vi­ties (inter­nal and exter­nal).
  • For con­cre­te tasks in lar­ger or leng­thy pro­jects, to main­tain momen­tum.
  • For the com­ple­te coor­di­na­ti­on and manage­ment of pro­jects.

COMING TOGETHER – KEEPING TOGETHER – WORKING TOGETHER.

Infrastructure

You are planning the general development or targeted optimization of infrastructure. 
Be it an entire functional area, such as a technical center, or specific equipment.
Be it a co-development space or – for the presentation of your prototypes – a suitable selection of attractive packaging and the necessary filling options.
In addition, the digitization of processes or the integration of software solutions into individual workflows.
The topic of infrastructure is wide-ranging, includes the needs of CAPEX and deserves an adequate dedication not only for this reason.

You realize the advantages of having a “Co" at your side, do not hesitate to contact me.

Knowledge Management

You are aware of the immense importance that the topic of know-how also has in your company. From EH&S-relevant basic knowledge to general market, product and technology knowledge to individual business processes and your own IP. 
Both the appropriate accumulation and the adequate transfer of knowledge are equally important for securing long-term competitiveness.
The concept should be anchored in the corporate culture and be visible in the daily practice of the employees.
Well thought-out digitization and the associated considerations, including the integration of AI-supported software, offer a valuable opportunity here.

If you are dealing with the topic of knowledge management – conceptually or already in your daily routine – and you need support from a “Co" at your side in this phase, do not hesitate to contact me.

Interim-Management

Your company needs additional resources and expertise. You are looking for support in a change process. You would like to fill a vacancy in the best possible way – whether in line or project responsibility, in a newly created position or as a successor. Sustainable implementation requires not only sufficient time, but also a suitable interim solution that takes responsibility and actively supports you in the process.

You appreciate the “Co" at your side – as a stabilizing element, accelerator and enabler – do not hesitate to contact me.

Structure & Processes

You have realized that your growth, the market environment or upcoming intrinsic factors require an adequate further development of your structures and may even have to set a transformation process in motion. As part of the continuous improvement of your process landscape, relevant processes and their systemic implementation should also be put to the test.

If you would like an independent and experienced “Co" at your side for this challenge, do not hesitate to contact me.

Product

You have a creative idea for a product or concept and need support in implementing it.
You are looking for a suitable packaging for your product concept or you need a suitable concept for your packaging.
As part of the life cycle management of your existing portfolio, you are planning an innovation initiative, perhaps also the revision of certain product recipes.
Or you would like to expand your product portfolio to include a previously untapped segment.
You value active participation, support in the process as well as an independent expert opinion on your product concept and the relevant product features.

All of these are convincing reasons and opportunities to have a “Co" at your side – feel free to contact me to clarify your specific needs together.
