These winners continue to go above and beyond to improve food safety, enhance efficiency and disrupt supply chain disruptions.”

Regarding the recognition, Kenny said, "Thank you Food Logistics! It is a humbling surprise to receive this recognition. Thank you also to those who nominated me. I have been blessed to work for a great company that values its employees and encourages everyone to do everything they can to efficiently move food all over this great land. My father taught us that we are not just brokering loads, but that we are helping feed millions of people. Our software and 3PL services have evolved to help companies do just that. This is a wonderful honor that I share with all the employees with whom I work."
