CEO Today - Global Awards 2025

How do you ensure Ceuta Group remains adaptable and responsive to the rapidly changing consumer goods industry? Albert Einstein once said: “ The measure of intelligence is the ability to change” and Charles Darwin stated that “ The one most adaptable to change is the one that survives” - I agree with them both, throughout my career with my leadership team, I have always stressed that we should understand the market shape three years in advance i.e. will the Shopper or Consumer profile change, What advancements will AI take shape, will our product or service still be relevant etc – But then the focus should be on the solution to adapt to change with the relevant product or service offering. Could you discuss Ceuta Group’s approach to integrating ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) principles into its business operations? As per our website messaging: Ceuta Group, sees climate change as a global interconnected challenge that everyone must adapt to. We are always mindful of the risks associated with the impacts of climate change, including severe weather events and environmental changes, as well as the transition risks posed by the policy and technological changes necessary to achieve a greener economy. At Ceuta Group, an IQVIA business, we don’t have large carbon footprints. In all business operations, including travel, we prioritise sustainability by opting for greener alternatives to minimise our carbon footprint and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our planet is facing unprecedented risks and damage to its natural resources.
