Holland, Mich., 8/24/2010 – LeanLogistics, a global leader in innovative SaaS transportation technology and supply chain services, was recognized as a Top 3PL by Food Logistics, the only publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the food supply chain. The magazine announced the fifth-annual listing of the Top 85 3PLs in its July/August 2010 issue.
“To be selected to this elite group of third-party providers is an affirmation of our innovative on-demand transportation technology and supply chain services,” said Tim Hinson, LeanLogistics VP of Operations. “We’re committed to helping our clients achieve best-in-class performance by optimizing their transportation management services.”
Food Logistics’ list of Top 3PLs is comprised of third-party logistics providers that offer a broad scope of services and capabilities that enable food companies to reduce costs, increase flexibility and improve service levels.
“Food distribution is a very complex business and 3PLs play a crucial role in the supply chain,” explains Katherine Doherty, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics magazine. “While most 3PLs have felt the effects of the economic downturn, the Top 85 continue to respond to their customers’ needs and rise to the logistical challenges that today’s food organizations face."
The editors of Food Logistics compiled this list through research, nomination and submission forms from end users, solution providers, and industry analysts. Final recipients are featured in the cover story of the July/August issue of Food Logistics, as well as online at www.foodlogistics.com.
