Clearhill has reached an important milestone in its Lean journey, utilising 1,000 Kanban cards through GembaDocs. This accomplishment was recognised at the recent Gemba Summit in Titanic Belfast and reflects the company’s deep commitment to continuous improvement, visual management, and empowering its people to problem-solve and innovate every day.
As a business dedicated to operational excellence across more than 400 retail and leisure locations, Clearhill continues to embed Lean principles at every level. Using GembaDocs’ digital platform, teams across the business have been able to create standard processes, visualise workflows, and track real-time improvements more effectively than ever before.
“This award is more than just a number; it’s a reflection of how our people think and work,” said John McAreavey, Director at Clearhill. “Reaching 1,000 Kanban cards show how far we’ve come in creating a culture of problem-solving and accountability. The energy and commitment from the team has been incredible.”
The recognition at Gemba Summit marks another step forward in Clearhill’s Lean journey – and a reminder that every small improvement contributes to a stronger, smarter, and more connected business.
