Consultancy Henkan Launches Strategic Rebrand and Service Expansion

by | Apr 24, 2025 | News

Henkan enhances operational excellence offerings with strategic rebrand and expansion.

Henkan, a specialist in helping organisations optimise manufacturing, production and operational performance, has launched its new brand identity and revamped digital presence, reflecting its position within private equity backed FourCentric group.

Founded in 2006, Henkan was created to break away from traditional consulting approaches. Instead of delivering off-the-shelf solutions from the sidelines, Henkan’s experts work side by side with client teams to embed bespoke programmes focused on principles such as Lean, TPM and WCM, supported by change management strategies directly into day-to-day operations. By prioritising knowledge transfer and building internal capabilities, Henkan enables clients to achieve long-term, self-sustaining growth. It’s an approach that has earned the trust of leading global companies, some of whom have partnered with Henkan for more than a decade.

James Cuthbert, Managing Director, Henkan said: “Joining FourCentric, the international professional services group, added enhanced value to Henkan’s clients by delivering tangible outcomes across procurement, supply chain, operations, and analytics, and now we are proud to communicate this value proposition through our refreshed branding.”

 While the new brand identity reflects Henkan’s place within FourCentric’s value-adding ecosystem, its distinctive approach remains the same – only enhanced by its refined value proposition that takes a holistic, interconnected approach to help drive a step-change in manufacturing and operational performance. Clients can continue to expect tailored solutions, delivered by experienced consultants who work hands-on to drive meaningful, measurable results that stick.

“This refreshed look marks an exciting step forward for Henkan,” added James Cuthbert. “While we are now more closely aligned with the FourCentric House of Brands, what hasn’t changed is our commitment to practical, people-centric consulting that delivers real results. We remain the same trusted partner, now with even greater opportunities to add value through the broader FourCentric group.”

 

As part of the FourCentric group, Henkan offers clients access to a broader suite of capabilities, connecting operational excellence with deep expertise across the end-to-end supply chain, including procurement, advanced analytics, and executive talent. This integrated approach enables organisations to navigate and solve complex challenges more effectively and accelerate performance across the board.
