Perrigo provides access to trusted self-care solutions that can be used without the need to visit a health practitioner for a prescription. Guided by our vision and purpose, our strategic goal is to create sustainable and value accretive growth by 1) delivering consumer preferred brands and innovation, 2) driving category growth with our customers, 3) powering our business with our world-class, quality assured supply chain, including a focus on sustainability with meaningful goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, water, and waste, in addition to increasing the recyclability of our packaging, and 4) evolving our global organization to one cohesive operating model. Our unique competency is to deliver health and wellness solutions across multiple price and value tiers that improve access and choice for consumers.
Perrigo's broad offerings are well diversified across several major product categories as well as across geographies, primarily in North America and Europe, with no one product representing more than 5% of total revenue. In North America, Perrigo is the leading store brand private label provider of self-care products in many categories, including upper respiratory, healthy lifestyle and women's health, along with brands including Opill® and Mederma®. In Europe, our portfolio consists primarily of brands, including Compeed®, ellaOne®, Solpadeine®, Jungle Formula®, and ACO®.
Two key initiatives have been fundamental in advancing our self-care strategy — our Supply Chain Reinvention Program, a global supply chain efficiency program, and Project Energize, a global investment and efficiency program. In addition, we continue to invest in other initiatives, including innovation, information systems and tools, and our people to drive consistent and sustainable results.
Perrigo’s unique complementary businesses enable each individually to play a specific reinforcing role, where 1) store brands generate cash for investments into the Company’s key higher margin, higher growth brands, 2) branding and innovation capabilities deliver both brand and store brand demand generation designed to lead to stronger customer partnerships, 3) consumer-led innovation scaled across brands, store brands and geographies, and 4) leveraging global supply chain scale of more molecules at more price points to more consumers driving household penetration.
The Company’s plan to drive cash flow and total shareholder return is anchored behind its ‘Three-S’ plan – ‘Stabilizing’ Consumer Self-Care Americas store brand and infant formula businesses; ‘Streamlining’ the global portfolio, enterprise operating model and Consumer Self-Care International business; and ‘Strengthening’ what is working by prioritizing and increasing investments behind key brands.
