Annual eyefortransport 3PL Awards Shortlist Revealed – includes top North American 3PLs

“Each year the eyefortransport 3PL Awards aim to recognize those 3PLs that continuously deliver excellence in logistics operations and superior service to their customers,” said Chris Saynor, CEO of eyefortransport.

“The awards are decided on by 3PL customers - the manufacturers and retailers who depend upon and work with logistics service providers every day.”

The winners of the final round of customer voting will be announced and celebrated at a Gala Reception at the annual 3PL Summit & Chief Supply Chain Officer Forum – the major industry meeting place for 3PLs and 3PL users.

The Gala Awards Reception will be held at the Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel in Chicago on the evening of June 18th, and will be attended by hundreds of executives, including the CEOs of many top 3PLs, and VP & SVP supply chains from major customers.

“It’s a very exciting year for the 3PL awards,” said Chris Saynor.  “We’ve got a great shortlist of 3PLs in each category, chosen by the experienced judging panel and the competition in all the categories will be fierce.”
