"From cargo fraud and Mother Nature to ever-changing food safety regulations and an upcoming election that could bring an increase in tariffs, cost of goods and more, many of today's supply chain leaders are faced with a number of challenges. But it's their resilience, hard work, innovation and attention to quality that separates these rock stars apart from everyone else. Every year, this award puts a spotlight on the best of the best in the cold chain industry," says Marina Mayer, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive.
