Strand Cosmetics Europe and Marvinpac have formed a joint venture, MS Swiss Cosmetics, offering full service Made in Switzerland solutions for prestige skin care brands.

Based in Chatel-Saint-Denis, the new contract manufacturer combines Strand’s formulation and manufacturing expertise with Marvinpac’s customized packaging know-how. Products will be manufactured, filled and packaged at the company’s Swiss hub, therefore qualifying for the prestigious ‘Swiss made’ label.

The new company will be led by Business Unit Manager Judith Levy, reporting to Associate Directors Eric Bouvier (CEO of Strand Cosmetics) and Ludovic Hericher (CEO of Marvinpac). The company will exhibit its range for the first time at MakeUp in Seoul on April 6.
