DISTRIBUTION MONDI

Mondi is an international packaging and paper Group, with production operations across 30 countries and revenues of €5.8 billion in 2012. The Group's key operations are located in central Europe, Russia, the Americas and South Africa and as at the end of 2012, Mondi employed 25,700 people.

History

The roots of the global business that is now Mondi were first planted in 1967 in South Africa, when our former owners Anglo American plc built the Merebank mill. Following more than two decades’ growth and consolidation in South Africa, we came to Europe in the early 1990s to start a long period of expansion through acquisition.

We have bought businesses in countries including Austria, the UK, France, Russia, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Denmark, the Netherlands, Bulgaria and Italy, as well as operations in Mexico.

During this time, many major companies – often market leaders in their home nations – became part of Mondi. These included Austria’s Neusiedler AG and Frantschach AG, Cofinec in Poland, and Russia’s Syktyvkar mill, which is central to our future expansion plans into emerging opportunities in Asia and the Americas.

We became an independent dual-listed business in mid-2007 when we successfully demerged from Anglo American with listings on the London and Johannesburg Stock Exchanges.

From January 2008, in place of the former Mondi Packaging and Mondi Business Paper business units, we now began operating as two divisions: Europe & International and South Africa.

Strategy and the Mondi Way

We use the Mondi Way to visualise how our purpose, strategy and operational framework (called the Mondi Diamond) fit together, all built on the foundation of our shared culture and values.

This simple yet effective approach is in essence an integrated strategic roadmap that guides the way in which we all work. It facilitates an understanding of how each and every Mondi employee contributes to delivering on our strategy in a sustainable way through their daily work and objectives.
