Supply Chain Leaders Honoured for Sustainability in 2025
Supply chains are at the centre of the sustainability challenge.
As global networks grow more complex, businesses face increasing pressure to manage emissions, reduce waste, ensure responsible sourcing and strengthen resilience. Supply chains are crucial to driving this value, transparency and accountability.
From sustainable procurement frameworks to greener logistics, organisations must demonstrate how they balance efficiency with responsibility while meeting the expectations of regulators, investors and customers.
The awards highlight how innovation, collaboration and governance are transforming supply chains into more sustainable, future-ready systems.
At this year’s ceremony, several winners stood out for showing that commercial growth and environmental responsibility can advance together, including HH Global and DP World.

The company’s partnership with Diageo demonstrates how sustainability can be fully integrated into brand activation. Through shared governance models, performance dashboards and an employee-chosen impact fund, the collaboration directly aligns with Diageo’s Society 2030 goals.
Beyond partnerships, HH Global advances supply chain responsibility through an SDG-aligned procurement framework.
