Partnering
Concepts
If you’re looking for fresh ideas and a way to take your private or exclusive label lines to the next level, you need a seasoned partner like us in your corner. With a broad portfolio ranging from drugs and medical products to nutritional supplements and beauty products, we specialise in developing product lines across the entire ‘Well-Health’ spectrum.
Wolfgang Hahn (Managing Director Private Label):“Our retail partners see our extensive market, category and regulatory expertise as the key to success in excelling in private and exclusive labels. We generate new ideas, pave the way for innovations and are the ideal sparring partner and sounding board, whatever the task or formula at hand.”
Innovation
Engine
Fresh ideas have always been a key success factor for WindStar. That is why we rely on three major drivers of innovation as we pursue our vision of ‘Well-Health. For everyone.’:
(1) Agile and powerful R&D that fosters new proprietary additions to the health, beauty and well-being space at a fair price;
(2) Close collaboration with our retail partners, enabling strong private labels and exclusive brands to quickly adapt to emerging trends; and
(3) Inspiration from young brands with innovative edge.
Dr. Dominique Friederich (CEO):"We are always looking for fresh ideas, concepts and formulas that help improve people’s health and well-being and translate lifestyle trends into quality products at fair prices. We love launching new products that are better and more effective, yet remain affordable."
Distribution Partner of Choice
The WindStar Medical distribution network covers all relevant distribution channels across the board – stationary and online channels, from drug, perfumery and food channels to discount and online partners. Our customised solutions allow us to find the perfect partner and concept for every product and every brand idea.
Torsten Knor (Managing Director at WindStar Commercial Expert):“We understand the dynamics of consumers and categories. This allows us to help our commercial clients optimise their offerings to consumers, whether through a differentiated portfolio structure, category approach or a customised point of sale solution. The consumer is at the centre of what we do – for healthier and better lives and that ‘feel good moment’ at fair prices every day.”
Operational Excellence
WindStar Medical’s commitment to operational excellence can be seen from its supplier network, product quality, innovation leadership and supply-chain organisation.
Dr Andreas Bender (COO):“We believe in reliability – reliability in everything from product quality to regulatory processes. Quality and reliability are the basis of long-term business relationships. And this is what WindStar stands for.”
