The Landmarks in Logistics Awards 2022 is an annual occasion that will start this year to elevate excellence. It honors the contributions, talent, and creativity of companies and business leaders in the logistics and supply chain sectors.
About the Awards
The introduction of the Landmarks in Logistics Awards 2022 represents a new accomplishment of the Gulf's growing logistics scene, particularly in the UAE, which is home to several logistics centers and strong economies.
The recent interruptions the global supply chain has been facing since the COVID pandemic have made it hard around the globe to supply vital goods regularly.
However, the efforts of the logistics sector and the UAE in facilitating the daily movement of such goods across borders are remarkable.
The Landmarks in Logistics Awards 2022 event intends to recognize, award, and celebrate exceptional performers and achievers. It is a ground-breaking occasion that acknowledges the efforts of motivated businesses whose services have impacted this incredibly dynamic and resilient industry.
The awards target businesses that pursue high standards of distinction and performance and logistics leaders who were able to keep global trade moving amid a highly challenging environment.
The occasion provides the top businesses in the logistics and supply chain sector a chance to highlight their performance and accomplishments. It invites the most active professionals in the sector and celebrates their progress as trustworthy logistics partners.
Vervo Middle East Participates as the best logistics start-up of the year.
On September 18, 2022, the CEO of Vervo Middle East, Mr. Maris Dreimanis will represent Vervo Middle East in the Landmarks in Logistics Awards 2022 event.
Vervo Middle East participates as the best Logistics Supply Chain Start-up of the Year. The jury for this distinctive category will investigate a new business with a lot of promise. Over the past years, the UAE has seen an explosion of start-up logistics and supply chain businesses created by clever and ambitious individuals who acted quickly to capture opportunities as they appeared.
The pandemic pushed the logistics and supply chain industries to adopt new technologies, resulting in innovative developments that revolutionized how this industry operates. Technological advancements, increased connectivity, industrial integration, and digitalization are all transforming the industry. Emerging start-ups are capitalizing on these developments and frequently have a background in Internet-of-Things (IoT), Analytics, or Digital.
The award honors those innovative logistics and supply-chain start-ups while encouraging them to emerge, develop, and build safer, greener, and more efficient supply chains.
We believe a successful logistics business strategy depends heavily on an agile, asset-light, technology-driven infrastructure. We managed to take better advantage of low levels of bureaucracy in coming up with highly targeted, innovative, and customized logistics companies compared to the more traditional business models. Our agile model helps us respond quickly to changing dynamics. That allows us to scale with Vervo Middle East in Dubai while maintaining a lean setup and little risk exposure.
