Global beverage packaging manufacturer scaling SAP and security infrastructure across five continents
CANPACK Group operates a multi-continent manufacturing footprint producing beverage cans, food tins, glass bottles, and closures at scale—8,000 employees across production sites in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-grade ERP-centric operation (SAP S/4HANA, WM, EWM, PPDS) layered with modern security tooling (Defender, Netskope, CyberArk, SailPoint), while active projects signal a strategic push to unify global systems: concurrent S/4HANA deployments across multiple regions, IAM redesign, and security transformation programs indicate a company operationalizing compliance and automation across a fragmented, geographically dispersed base.
Notable leadership hires: Area Lead, SAP Solution Delivery Lead

Current initiatives center on global SAP harmonization, supply-chain visibility (warehouse operations systems, inventory accuracy), and production reliability (quality improvement, machine downtime reduction).
