Relationship matters: How Hellmann & alphacaps keep growing together
In recent years, alphacaps has expanded significantly, bringing new logistical challenges. From the very beginning, our collaboration has been based on reliability, flexibility, and a strong problem-solving mindset.
One person who has been directly involved in this growth is Marvin Wächter, Head of Logistics & Internal Sales at alphacaps. Having joined the company in 2016 as an apprentice in industrial management, he has since developed into the head of his department. Over the years, he has not only witnessed the rapid growth of alphacaps firsthand but has also played an active role in shaping it.

Hello, Mr. Wächter! How would you describe your collaboration with Hellmann over the years? What stands out in terms of reliability and transparency?
Marvin Wächter: Reliability is the most important factor in our industry. In the food sector, reliability always goes hand in hand with quality, and our standards are set extremely high. As a result, we have enjoyed a close and reliable partnership with Hellmann for the past seven years, during which these high standards have always been met. This is reflected not only in transportation services but also in the highly committed team, which takes on our challenges daily and always provides us with the right solutions.
Long-term partnerships thrive on mutual appreciation. Can you share a moment where you especially valued the partnership with Hellmann?
Marvin Wächter: It’s not about a single moment – it’s about all the times when the impossible was made possible. With our rapid growth and highly dynamic customer base, flexibility is one of our key differentiators. To put this flexibility into practice, we fully appreciate and utilize the opportunities that Hellmann offers us – and that makes every day enjoyable!
How have we tackled logistics challenges together in creative and effective ways?
Marvin Wächter: Cooperation and communication are the key elements I want to highlight here. The communication is personal and direct, which has already proven to be an advantage in several situations. Overall, our working relationship has now developed into a collegial collaboration, without losing sight of the necessary professionalism. I see this strong cooperation as the key to our shared success.
How does alphacaps see the future of logistics for nutritional supplements, and how can Hellmann contribute to realizing this vision?
Marvin Wächter: Growth, growth, growth – the direction is clear. The future of logistics will be defined by all the factors we have already mentioned: reliability, quality, flexibility, and communication – all of these elements must work seamlessly at the highest level. With our continued expansion, we will face new challenges in the future, where Hellmann will remain the right partner to support us along the way.
What defines a strong, long-term logistics partnership for you?
Marvin Wächter: At alphacaps, long-term partnerships mean continuous development. Looking back at the past years serves as an indicator of how we will approach future challenges. There has never been stagnation in how our collaboration has evolved, and that is the decisive factor in staying successful in the long run.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Marvin Wächter and the alphacaps team for their insights into this long-standing collaboration.
At Hellmann, we firmly believe that Relationship matters – and our partnership with alphacaps is proof that long-term collaboration in logistics makes all the difference.
