Sydney, Australia, October 08, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Global Supply Chain Group, a supply chain strategy consulting
organization headquartered in Sydney is sponsoring the coveted ¡®Green Supply Chain Award¡¯ at the upcoming
Supply Chain Asia Logistics Awards 2007 (see http://www.supplychainasia.com/sponsors/ for more details). On
behalf of the Global Supply Chain Group, the award will be presented by Dr. Wolfgang Partsch, the man credited
with co-creating the terminology and methodology of Supply Chain Management over 25 years ago, and a senior
partner with Global Supply Chain Group. ¡°Supply Chains have come a long way in the last 25 years when we did our
first projects in Supply Chain Management, and now occupy centre-stage of business life. It is time Supply Chain
disciplines were combined with green principles to create and extend Green Supply Chains that benefit the society
around the world¡± ¨C Dr. Parstch said.
The Green Supply Chain Award is based on the following principles:
Governments and industry organizations around the globe have started to issue directives on how to minimize the
environmental impact of supply chain and logistics processes; and consumers in many countries are becoming more
conscious of purchasing products that have been produced and delivered under certain environmental standards.
The Green Supply Chain Award is aimed at rewarding organisations that have foreseen this trend and are making
genuine efforts to minimize the environmental impact of their supply chain processes.
The criteria for the award are as follows:
Nominated companies should be recognized as leaders in the field of building environmental sustainability into
industry and should have a track record of excellence in environmental standards in creation and deliverance of
products and services
Companies should be proven to regularly take measures to improve their environmental performance, such as
through application of environmental criteria to assess and choose suppliers, and study and action to control
emissions from transportation requirements
Companies should adhere to and/or outperform all official national, regional and global environmental guidelines set
for their industry
Companies should be profitable in the past year and show a strong recent track record of profitability
Aside from the sponsors such as Global Supply Chain Group, Agility, Emirates Shipping Line, LRQA, TT Club and
Virgin Atlantic, other attendees at the event will include: DP World, Dubai Logistics City, Emirates Sky Cargo, DHL,
UPS, Fedex, Schenker, KN, Li & Fung, Cargolux, Cathay Pacific, Maersk, Evergreen.
Mr. Vivek Sood, the Managing Director of Global Supply Chain Group has stated ¡°we are excited to sponsor the
inaugural Green Supply Chain Award. Our current research delves deeply into extending the supply chain disciplines
into Green Supply Chain arena. We are looking forward to sponsoring this award for many years to come, and work
with corporations to make their Supply Chains more green.¡±
There are 5 finalists in the category: BAYER, CIBA, Eastman Chemicals, Pfizer & Shell. The judges are deciding the
winner soon, and the winner will be revealed on the night of the awards on November 22nd in Hong Kong at a gala
industry dinner at Hong Kong Convention Centre.
