The finalists have now been selected for the 10th anniversary year of The European Supply Chain Excellence Awards.
True to the spirit and objectives of the European Supply Chain Excellence Awards, the entrants this year came from a diverse range of industries and companies across Europe.
We reveal the latest companies to join the hallowed ranks of the winners of The European Supply Chain Excellence Awards.
