VNV is a platform for packaging professionals dedicated to improving the impact of packaging design, execution and application in the value chain. Packaging professionals can be found in technical disciplines, in development and innovation, or in management. More and more, our members hold strategic positions in companies or associations. Some of our senior members are independent advisors. The Netherlands, with a strong industry in food and groceries, serves a wide and diverse export market. Most of our packaging professionals operate in an international context.

What is the VNV?
The 'Vereniging Nederlandse Verpakkingskundigen' (VNV), translated as 'Dutch Association of Packaging Professionals',  is an community of experts. An integrated, cross-functional value chain approach to packaging functionality is our shared competence. Throughout their professional life most or our members develop from specialists to seasoned experts with a holistic view on packaging and the supply chain. The VNV is a valuable platform to learn and interact with fellow professionals on a personal basis. This helps to broaden the scope on value chain complexity and acquire additional skills to operate on more strategic and managerial levels.

The VNV stimulates professionalism with its members and aims to strengthen the profession as such in the marketplace. Critical and strategic issues like product innovation, branding, sustainability and cost control are increasingly associated with packaging in many industries. In order for packaging experts to deliver value they must be able to operate and influence decisions accordingly. VNV strives towards achieving both.

Our brochure Innovation drives us forwards outlines the scope of today’s packaging professionals from 4 different angles:
