Demand Solutions Supply Chain Management Software Named to 2011 Food Logistics 100
ST. LOUIS --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Demand Management, Inc., a global resource for supply chain management solutions, was recently named to the Food Logistics 100 list for 2011. Food Logistics, the only publication dedicated exclusively to the grocery and foodservice distribution supply chain, announced the eighth-annual listing of the FL100 in its November/December 2011 issue.
Each year, the editors of Food Logistics recognize 100 software and technology providers that better enable grocery and foodservice distributors and manufacturers to realize their business goals. This year, the publication focused on solution providers that are helping their customers differentiate themselves in the marketplace, while simultaneously facilitating improved safety and traceability throughout the supply chain.
“With the passage of the FDA’s landmark Food Safety and Modernization Act, the entire food and beverage sector is under increased pressure to improve safety and traceability throughout the supply chain. In addition, the ongoing globalization of food supply chains demands closer collaboration with suppliers and enhanced visibility from farm to fork,” notes Lara L. Sowinski, editor-in-chief at Food Logistics. “Technology is a powerful tool that can ensure compliance, mitigate risk, and serve as a market differentiator in today’s highly competitive environment.”
“For 26 years we’ve been giving our customers in the food and beverage industry the tools necessary to improve their overall supply chain efficiency, to better help them run their businesses,” said Demand Management President Bill Harrison. “Being named to the Food Logistics 100 for a third time is a testament to our dedication to our customer satisfaction and we’re honored to be here once again.”
