Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/24/2014 -- Honoring the supply chain’s best and brightest, Supply & Demand Chain Executive’s “Pros to Know” include professionals proactively working to improve their business’s functions in a number of categories—including manufacturing and production output, procurement, logistics, risk mitigation strategies, sourcing, financial operations, packaging and distribution, and transportation.

John Hayes, Vice President of US Sales and Marketing, for robotic industrial truck leader Seegrid was one of the award-winning honorees. Hayes commented, "I am honored to be recognized as a 2014 Supply & Demand Chain Executive Pros to Know. I have spent over 20 years in the logistics industry honing my craft with respect to integration of Automatic Guided Vehicles. This is a true honor to be recognized by a world class organization like Supply & Demand Chain Executive.”

Now in its 14th year, the Supply & Demand Chain Executive magazine “Pros to Know” awards recognize both ends of the supply chain. This includes honoring the “providers,” including individuals from software firms, service providers, consultancies or academia, who helped supply chain clients or the supply chain community prepare to meet industry challenges. This also includes honoring the “practitioners,” such as those supply chain executives who demonstrated leadership by managing risk in the supply chain; provided competitive advantage; and delivered value to the bottom line.
