Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive, the owners of industry executive awards such as Pros to Know, Rock Stars of the Supply Chain and the Women in Supply Chain Forum™ Award, partnered with Supply Chain Now, home to the No. 1 supply chain podcast on Apple Podcasts and founder of National Supply Chain Day, to launch the 2027 National Supply Chain Day Innovation & Excellence Awards (NSCD Innovation & Excellence Awards).
These awards recognize leading supply chain and logistics companies for their innovations and achievements as it relates to Transportation, Warehousing, Procurement, Manufacturing and/or Give Forward.
“Unlike a lot of our other awards, which celebrate individuals, these awards honor the achievement of companies in the supply chain space that are making a difference,” says Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive and Co-Founder of the Women in Supply Chain Forum™. “And, partnering with Supply Chain Now was a no brainer. They’re the No. 1 voice of supply chain and maintain a pulse on all things trends, challenges and opportunities in the supply chain space. We share the same passion and vision for honoring companies that are making a difference and doing good deeds. I look forward to highlighting the winners and hearing more about their stories.”
"Supply chain doesn’t get nearly enough credit for what it does every single day, and that’s exactly why we created National Supply Chain Day,” says Scott Luton, Founder of Supply Chain Now. “These awards take that celebration to the next level by recognizing the companies driving real innovation and real impact. Joining forces with Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive, two of the most respected brand names in the industry, makes this even more meaningful. So, nominate the companies that inspire you. We want to hear their stories!"
This award is in honor of National Supply Chain Day -- April 29 – which was created by Supply Chain Now to honor the workers, logistics professionals, drivers, and innovators who keep global commerce moving. Winners will be announced on April 29. Overall winners from the five categories will be featured in exclusive interviews with both Mayer and Luton throughout the year.
