Global Supply Chain Award Entries Close Thursday 9 July
You now have an additional 10 days to nominate hard-working colleagues and teams for the highly sought-after Global Supply Chain Awards 2026.
The past 12 months for many organisations have been turbulent, with tariffs and disruption on a global scale. The teams able to display resilience, with supply chains that continue to display seamless operations and growth amid difficult market conditions, deserve to be recognised.
It is not simply those that navigate difficult market conditions, but organisations that can grow and excel their systems while doing so that truly have the stories worth sharing.
The categories that count
To ensure we cover a wide breadth of achievements, the Awards ceremony has eight categories open for deserving supply chain operations and individuals. From an individual perspective, the two categories likely of interest are the Future Leader Award, which seeks to reward emerging talent, and the Supply Chain Hero Award, which is looking for people who go above and beyond within their role in the supply chain sector.
On an organisational level, we have multiple awards looking for supply chain excellence. Company of the Year is encouraging entries from firms that have excelled over the past year, while companies with more than 1,000 employees are eligible for the Enterprise of the Year accolade.
Our judging panel includes supply chain leaders from Apple, Google, IBM, Coupa, Siemens, Vodafone and more. They will be identifying organisations that have been optimising international operations through innovation, efficiency, and resilience for the Global Trade & Logistics Award and those with a digital focus on innovation would make ideal candidates for the Digital Supply Chain Award.
Sustainability continues to be a primary focus for leading supply chains and the Global Supply Chain Awards has a category directly looking for initiatives that reduce environmental impact: The Sustainable Supply Chain Award. The final category that might be of interest is project-focused. Transformation Project of the Year will be awarded to a project that has demonstrated not just success, but measurable improvement in efficiency, agility and performance.
Shortlisting supply chain excellence
For those shortlisted, the event presents an opportunity to enhance your credibility on a global stage through association with a prestigious awards programme delivered in association with Supply Chain Digital.
The judging panel, who can be found on our Awards page, will be carefully considering your submissions to ensure the finalists who are lucky enough to be shortlisted are the right candidates for the awards.
For those entering, it gives you a chance to highlight your innovation, performance and strategic impact while positioning your business at the forefront of global supply chain excellence, while also engaging with the most influential supply chain executives and peers responsible for shaping the future of our industry.
Black-tie celebrations
The Global Supply Chain Awards, which are co-located with The Global Procurement Awards and The Global Sustainability Awards, will see leading professionals from across the global supply chain sector come together in the same room for an exclusive black-tie gala dinner. The leading industry innovators will be side-by-side for the evening of celebration.
