This award recognizes changemakers who are outstanding leaders in the space and are reinventing what it means to be a supply chain professional
ATLANTA, Ga., March 8, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Focal Point, provider of an end-to-end enterprise procurement management platform, today announced that its founder and CEO, Anders Lillevik, was named as a 2024 Pro to Know award by Supply & Demand Chain Executive, the only publication covering the entire global supply chain.
For the second year in a row, Lillevik is recognized among other industry pioneers like Nicole Glenn and David Bush as a Pro to Know. This recognition follows Focal Point's wins in two other Supply & Demand Chain Executive award categories, including the 2023 Top Tech Startup award (also for the second consecutive year), which spotlights top software and technology startups in the supply chain and logistics space, and the 2023 Top Software & Tech award, honoring the top software and technology solutions in the supply chain space.
"Many of today's supply chain pros are more than just leaders within their space; they're innovators, decision makers, pioneers of change and growth. They've spent the last year (and more) creating safer, more efficient supply chains," says Marina Mayer, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive. "New this year, we broke the award down into four distinct categories: Top Warehousing Stars; Top Procurement Stars; Rising Stars; and Lifetime Achievement. These winners continue to go above and beyond to overcome challenges, advance supply chain management and make the impossible, possible."
Lillevik was selected as Pro to Know based on several factors, including his strategic leadership through Focal Point's new platform launch, 2023 rebrand, and major customer acquisitions, along with his ongoing dedication to procurement-focused thought leadership as it relates to ESG, DE&I, ethics and compliance, security risks, and more.
"At Focal Point, we are committed to elevating the procurement function beyond cost savings. Procurement should continue to be included in strategic business conversations for the role it plays in sustainability, diversity and longevity," said Lillevik. "Our continued recognition is a testament to the industry's need for technology, like ours, that brings total visibility to the procurement process. We wouldn't have reached this point without the hard work of the team I am privileged to lead."
Recipients of this year's award will be profiled in Supply & Demand Chain Executive's March 2024 issue, which will be distributed at MODEX 2024 and at http://www.SDCExec.com.
