It-a-Wrap

On 19 November 2015, more than 350 professionals from the logistics and supply chain industry gathered at the Swissotel the Stamford to celebrate the achievements and success stories of the industry.

Lighting up the event was Ms Jasmine Tan hosting the event with her quirky demeanour andlight-hearted jokes. Additionally, gracing the event was Mr Teo Ser Luck, Minister of State and Minister of Manpower as the Guest of Honour for the night. Following the arrival of the Minister, the awards ceremony began with a speech from the Founding Chairman of Supply Chain Asia and Executive Chairman of YCH Group, Mr Robert Yap, on the achievements of the organisation. To commemorate Supply Chain Asia’s 10th Anniversary, a special award was prepared for the night to reward the BOA members, Mr Paul Bradley, Dr Robert Yap and Professor Mark Goh for their dedication and contributions that help build the success of the organisation.

The Fete Musicians were invited to serenade the crowd that evening. With their strings rendition of classics like Viva la Vida and pop songs, like Just Give Me a Reason and Accidentally in Love, it was an enjoyable night filled with great music and sumptuous food. A gathering of all the established professionals in the industry, the event also serves as a good base for the industry contacts to network while paying tribute to the high-achievers.

An end with a bang

The next set of awards that evening and the highlight of the Awards was the Corporate Awards. The biggest winner of the night was DPDHL Group. In addition to Ms Yasmin Aladad Khan’s win as the Woman Supply Chain Professional of the Year, DHL Global Forwarding was the highly voted organisation for sea freight with a strong Asian base winning the Sea Freight Partner of the Year. Lastly, By the end of the night, DHL Supply Chain has also clinched the Overall Supply Chain Partner of the Year.

The surprise of the night came during the Asian 3PL of the Year category.

To commemorate the 10th Year Anniversary of Supply Chain Asia, both nominees, YCH Group and Kerry Logistics, were awarded as joint-winners for their success and commitment to the industry.
