Leading companies in the cargo, logistics and supply chain sectors took home 48 different awards at the 2019 Asian Freight, Logistics and Supply Chain (AFLAS) Awards at the Asia Society Hong Kong Center on June 17.

 

Despite threats of protests or a general strike called by opponents of Hong Kong's proposed extradition law, the event went off without a hitch. Attendees reported smoother than usual taxi rides to the event, which took place near the heart of recent protests in Hong Kong.

 

The awards, hosted and organized annually by Asia Cargo News, recognize leading service providers including air and shipping lines; airports and seaports; and logistics, 3PLs and other associated industry professionals. The nomination and voting process allowed the more than 15,000 readers of Asia Cargo News and e-news subscribers to first determine the leading companies in the market, and then determine the winners, making the results the opinion of service users rather than a panel of judges.

 

The nomination criteria was laid down by Asia Cargo News and following a technical evaluation, the top eight firms in each category appeared on the, final ballot. The top three firms in each category made up the final shortlist, with the winners collecting their awards from guest presenters from some of the biggest players in the Asian freight and logistics industry.

 

“A record number of shippers and other customers have voted for the 2019 AFLAS winners, making these awards a true reflection of industry expertise,” said Asia Cargo News publisher Darren Barton. “Competition was fierce, and I would like to congratulate all the winners tonight.”

 

“Asia is home to many of the worlds leader service providers, and we’re pleased to be able to honour them this evening, along with important partners in Europe and the Americas,” said Asia Cargo News managing editor Gregory Glass. “Asia is an exciting place to be in the freight, logistics and supply chain industry.”

 

Written by leading transport and cargo industry journalists, Asia Cargo News is a vital source of intelligence for cargo, logistics and supply chain companies located in and doing business in Asia. The newspaper includes a range of in-depth features, news and analysis designed to meet the information needs of industry decision-makers.

The 2020 AFLAS Awards will be held in Shanghai.
