 Supplier Relationship

OSRAM SYLVANIA develops partnerships with motivated, creative, quality-oriented suppliers on a worldwide scale. Our success is dependent upon successful supplier relationship. Our purchasing activities are based upon this principle. In our consideration, it is not simply the question of cost that is of importance; we attach a greater value to the optimization of the entire supply chain.
