Opened in 2009, Unilever's headquarters in Germany is a striking feature in Hamburg's newly re-developed harbour district.

Daily cleaning rounds reduced by 25%
Christiane Doms, Site Manager for Sodexo, reports that data-driven cleaning has eliminated unnecessary cleaning rounds while increasing availability of consumables to 100%.
